Sometimes I like to make a fancy dessert, but the truth is one of my husband’s favorite desserts is Rice Krispies® treats. I’ve actually made them and put them in a heart-shaped pan for Valentine’s Day.  That may sound lame to a lot of people, but it means a lot to him.

I was thinking that I’d never made a holiday treat for Christmas and I needed to fix that this year. It didn’t take me long to come up with an idea for this one and even less time to put it together. The rich and creamy deep red and white topping make this deceptively easy treat a show stopper.

Peppermint Rice Krispie Treats Recipe

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Peppermint Rice Krispie Treats Recipe

Ingredients

  • 6 cups Rice Krispies® Cereal
  • 5 tablespoons butter
  • 5 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 cup prepared white frosting
  • 1 7-oz container of marshmallow creme
  • Red food color (I use Americolor Soft Gel Paste Food Color "Super Red")
  • Black food color (Super Black)

Instructions

  1. Spray a 9x13 dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, melt the butter and miniature marshmallows together in 1 minute intervals until just melted. Pour in Rice Krispies® and stir together until combined. Press into the prepared 9x13 dish.
  3. Heat the marshmallow cream for 30 seconds in the microwave. Spoon dollops of the marshmallow cream over the Rice Krispies®.
  4. Add red food coloring to the frosting. A very small touch of black will deepen the red and lessen the amount of red you need. Spoon dollops of frosting around dollops of marshmallow. Run a butter knife through the dollops to create swirl patterns.
  5. Store covered at room temperature.

Notes

Home Chef Tip: This recipe can be made in advance and stored covered at room temperature.

    Can you add peppermint extract to the icing or crushed candy cane pieces to the Rice Krispies?

    This recipe doesn't mention peppermint. Where does it go in?

      Since peppermint can be over done, I just sprinkled crushed peppermint candy's over the top.
