Rice Crispy Treat Eggs

If you're looking for a fun twist on a classic treat, try making these egg shaped rice krispie treats for your next spring gathering.

Makes 24 rice crispy treat eggs

Ingredients  

  • 12 tablespoons Vital Farms Salted Butter
  • 10 cups mini marshmallows
  • 8 cups crispy rice cereal
  • food coloring of choice
  • sprinkles optional
  • olive or avocado oil

Instructions 

  • Add the butter and mini marshmallows to a large, microwave-proof bowl. Microwave for about 1-2 minutes, until marshmallows and butter are just melted.
  • Working quickly, divide the mixture up into 4 bowls (you can use the large bowl you microwaved the mixture in as one) then add your food coloring of choice to each bowl. Stir to distribute the color then add 2 cups of cereal to each bowl and stir until mixture is cohesive. You can also add sprinkles to any of the mixtures at this time, if you’d like as well.
  • Generously grease your hands with some oil and scoop about 1/4 cup portions of the mixture into your hands, shaping into an egg shape. Set aside on a plate or baking sheet to harden completely. Repeat with the rest of each color of rice crispy treat mixture.
