Sweetheart Pink Cereal Treats

This post contains affiliate links.

I'm always on the lookout for ways to make a traditional treat more special, and this recipe is a great example of that! The recipe itself is pretty straightfoward, but it's the addition of color and a few finishing touches that take them from Plain Jane to Fancy Nancy.

There are so many different things you could do with these; a spritz of edible glitter, a pretty fondant flower, the possibilities are endless!

Sweetheart Pink Rice Cereal Treats

Yields: 15 to 20 rice cereal treat bites

Ingredients

2 tbsp butter
2.5 cups marshmallows
Pink gel food coloring
3 cups rice cereal treats
1 cup white chocolate
Pink sugar sprinkles

Assembly Instructions

Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.

In a medium sized saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add marshmallows.

Stir marshmallows until completely melted, taking care that it doesn’t burn.

Once completely melted, remove from heat and add a couple of small drops of pink gel food coloring. Stir until marshmallow mixture is completely tinted.

Fold in rice cereal treats and keep on folding until all ingredients are well combined.

Roll 2-3 inch spheres from the rice cereal treat mixture. Place each sphere gently on lined baking sheet.

In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave white chocolate in 30-second intervals until completely melted.

Scoop melted chocolate into a piping bag and drizzle over each rice cereal treat. Top off with pink sprinkles.

Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes – serve and enjoy!
