Rainbow Rice Krispies Treats

a rice krispie treat with an added surprise

Both kids and adults (with an inner child trapped inside) will enjoy this fast easy dessert. I took the Rice Krispies treat and mixed in a colorful surprise – jelly beans! Not only does this transform the look, but also the taste. Its a burst of flavor in every bite. For another easy dessert that both kids and adults will enjoy try Elephant Ears or Almond Butter and Berries.

cooking tips

• Spray your spatula with Pam to prevent the treats from sticking.
• Cut them in over-sized shapes for a little extra flare! Or, put them on a stick to serve - just as you would at a county fair or festival!
