Servings: 10 servings
Calories: 86kcal
Ingredients
- 1½ tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons chocolate milk powder
- 3 cups Rice Krispie cereal
- ¼ cup white chocolate chips melted
- 1 teaspoon decorative sprinkles
Other:
- 2- inch heart-shaped cookie cutter
- 20 lollipop sticks or decorative straws cut in half
Instructions
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick saucepan over low heat. Melt the butter, then add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
- Add the chocolate milk powder and stir until dissolved, then add the cereal and stir to evenly coat in the chocolate marshmallow mixture.
- Transfer the rice krispies to the greased baking dish with a rubber spatula and press out into an even 1-inch layer. They will not take up the entire 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Allow to cool to room temperature for about 10 minutes.
- Use a small heart shaped cookie cutter and cut out 20 treats. Insert a lollipop stick, or decorative straw into the bottom of each heart. (Note: If using a decorative straw, use a toothpick or bamboo skewer to make a larger whole to insert the straw in easily.)
- Melt the chocolate according to package directions. Dip each heart in white chocolate, and allow the excess to drip off. Sprinkle evenly with the decorative sprinkles.
- After the chocolate has dried, serve the same day or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
