Disney Rice Krispie Treats

These Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats are the perfect recipe to make for any Disney lover! Not only are they cute, but they are so delicious: a classic Rice Krispie Treat with yummy chocolate and mini M&Ms on top shaped like Mickey Mouse!

Ingredients & Variations

• Mini Marshmallows: You can swap an equal amount of regular size if needed.
• Rice Krispie Treats Cereal: My recipe uses 9 cups of Rice Krispie cereal. You can use any brand of crisp rice cereal.
• Mini M&Ms: These are the perfect topping!
• Butter: Unsalted is best for this recipe but salted may be substituted.
• Candy Melts: I used chocolate melts, but you can also use chocolate chips or white candy melts.
• Extras: Instead of the mini M&M candies, you can use anything you like. Disneyland often has ones coated with colored sugars or sprinkles too!

How to make Mickey Treats

• Line two 9-inch baking pans with foil or parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Melt the butter over medium low heat in a large saucepan. Then add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
• Add cereal and stir to coat with the marshmallow mixture and press into pans. Tip: spray wax paper with nonstick cooking spray so you can press the treat mixture without it sticking to your hands.
• Let set until firm. Remove the pressed mixture from pan using foil and remove foil from the bottoms. Use a mickey mouse shaped cookie cutter to cut shapes.
• Melt chocolate according to package directions (I like using a paper bowl and melting on 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring after each). Dip each treat in the chocolate and then cover with mini M&Ms, press to adhere. Place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Let harden. If you want you can drizzle them with additional chocolate.

Expert Tips

• It is important to remember to get fresh marshmallows because stale ones will not melt the same.
• To make them in the microwave, heat butter and marshmallows in a microwave safe bowl for 2 minutes. Stir, then continue heating approx. 1 more minute or until melted.
• I don’t add popsicle sticks to my treats, but you can if you want. I just find it easier to make them without – and easier is my jam. You can even make Minnie Mouse Rice Krispies treats by adding a candy bow or using white and red candy melts!
• You can use any flavor Rice Krispie treat for the base of this recipe – my peanut butter Rice Krispie treats would be perfect!

Storage

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. To freeze, let cool completely then cut into bars and wrap each individual bar in wax paper and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

Instructions

• Line two 9-inch pans with foil or parchment and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Measure out cereal and place in a large bowl.
• Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Then add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.

• Let set until firm. Remove from pan using foil and remove foil from the bottoms. Use a mickey mouse shaped cookie cutter to cut shapes.
• Melt chocolate according to package directions (I like using a paper bowl and melting on 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring after each). Dip each treat in the chocolate and then cover with mini M&Ms, press to adhere. Place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Let harden.

Recipe Notes

• Use any flavor Rice Krispies cereal.
• You can use any size marshmallows, just make sure you’re only using 15
  ounces in the actual mixture – you’ll want mini ones to mix in or you’ll have to
  slice large ones to fold in at the end.
• Only use FRESH marshmallows and not-stale cereal for best results.
• You can use any color candy melts, chocolate chips, or white chocolate for different designs, but I recommend Ghirardelli candy melts.
• You may have some M&Ms left over. My recipe made 14 but it will depend on the size of your cookie cutter.
