Hugs and Kisses Rice Krispie Treats are a sweet and delicious Valentine's dessert that will show your family that you love them on Valentine's Day.

Ingredients

  • Kellogg’s Rice Krispie Cereal
  • Mini Marshmallows
  • Butter (Sweet Cream, Salted)
  • Wilton Color Right Food Coloring
  • X & O cookie cutters

Instructions

  1. For each color of Hugs and Kisses Rice Krispie Treats you will need 3 tablespoons of butter, 3 cups of marshmallows, and 3 cups of Rice Krispies Cereal.   Melt the butter in a large pan on medium heat.  Add the marshmallows and stir until melted.
  2. For the White X's and O's Rice Krispie Treats, simply mix in the 3 cups of Rice Krispie Cereal to the marshmallow mixture without adding any food coloring.
  3. For the Pink X's and O's add pink food coloring to the marshmallow mixture BEFORE you add in the Rice Krispie Cereal. Then mix in the cereal until it is completely covered with marshmallow mixture.
  4. For the Red X's and O's add red food coloring to the marshmallow mixture before you add the Rice Krispie cereal.
  5. Once the mixture had cooled slightly fill the X and O cookie cutters with Rice Krispie mixture.
  6. Then pop the treat out of the cookie-cutter and make another one until you run out of the mixture.

Notes

For us, 3 cups of Rice Krispie Treat mixture made 3 X's and 3 O's but your yield will depend on the size of your cookie cutters.

For the Red Hugs and Kisses Rice Krispie Treats, add 8 drops of Crimson Wilton Color Right Food Coloring and 1 drop of Red to the marshmallow mixture before you add the Rice Krispie cereal.

For the Pink X's and O's add 2 drops of Pink Wilton Color Right Food Coloring to the marshmallow mixture BEFORE you add in the Rice Krispie Cereal.
