Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats
These adorable Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats are perfect for a Mickey Mouse Birthday Party or as an anytime snack for that Disney Lover in your life.
Apparently, in Nancy and my world, you cannot have a party without some sort of celebratory Rice Krispie Treat. Here’s the thing…they are so delicious AND you can color them, mold them and make them into whatever sized treasure you want. So that is what we did with our Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats, we colored and shaped them to match our Mickey Mouse Party theme. These yummy Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats looked great on our dessert table and the guests loved them.
How to Make the Rice Krispie Treat Mixture
Step 1: The base for our Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats is our Best Ever Rice Krispie Treat Recipe which we have adjusted and perfected over the years until it is now absolutely the best Rice Krispie Treat recipe we have ever tasted. You can find all the directions you’ll need to make these delicious treats right here. You will need to make up three batches of Rice Krispie Treat mixture – one batch with no food coloring, one batch of red and one batch of black. Our Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter is pretty big so we only made three Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats from each of the individual batches. For each batch, we used 3 tablespoons of butter, 3 cups of marshmallows and 3 cups of Rice Krispie Treats.
Step 2: To make the Red Rice Krispie Treat mixture, after the marshmallows have melted but before you add the Rice Krispie Cereal, add 8 drops of Wilton Color Right Crimson food coloring and 1 drop of Red food coloring.
Step 3: To make the black Rice Krispie Treat mixture, add 6 drops of Wilton Color Right Black food coloring to the marshmallow mixture before you add the Rice Krispie Cereal.
Assembly Instructions
Step 4: Spoon the Rice Krispie Treat mixtures into rows on a large cookie sheet, press them down into flat layers and let cool for approximately 5 minutes.
Step 5: Use a Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter to cut out these fun red, white, and black birthday party treats.
Step 6: The cookie-cutter we used is on the big side, so we only made 9 Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats for our party. But we also had a bag of Rice Krispie Treats remnants for the family to snack on!

- Food Coloring - Red, Crimson, Black
- Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter
Instructions
You will need to make three batches of Rice Krispie Treat mixture - one batch with no food coloring, one batch of red and one batch of black. Our Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter is pretty big so we only made three Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats from each of the individual batches. For each batch, we used 3 tablespoons of butter, 3 cups of marshmallows and 3 cups of Rice Krispie Treats.
Directions for each batch:
- Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan on medium heat. Add 3 cups of mini marshmallows and stir continuously until the marshmallows are melted and take off the heat.
- Add food coloring as needed (see chart in notes section below.)
- Add 3 cups of Rice Krispie Cereal and stir until the cereal is completely covered in the pink marshmallow mixture.
- Spoon the three Rice Krispie Treat mixtures into rows on a large cookie sheet, press them down into flat layers and let cool for approximately 10-15 minutes.
- To make the Rice Krispie Treats we used a Mickey Mouse cookie cutter that we found on Etsy. There are many sellers on Etsy who use their 3D printers to make cute Mickey Mouse cookie cutters. We ordered one and got it within a week. It was the perfect shape and very reasonably priced.
- Cut out the Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats and let them cool before storing them.
