❓ FAQs

➡️ Can I make these ahead of time?

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Keep them in a single layer to avoid smudging the decorations.

➡️ Can I skip the peanut butter?

You can, but it adds flavor and helps the marshmallow layer stick better.

➡️ Can I use regular marshmallows instead of mini?

Absolutely – just chop them into smaller pieces to melt evenly.

➡️ How do I melt candy melts properly?

Use a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Do not overheat – low and slow is key for smooth candy coating.

➡️ Can I freeze Rice Krispies Treats Pops?

Freezing is not recommended, as it can change the texture of the treats and candy coating. They’re best enjoyed fresh or within a few days.

➡️ What if I don’t have lollipop sticks?

No problem! You can use paper straws, wooden skewers (with tips trimmed), or serve them as handheld bars.

➡️ How do I prevent the treats from falling off the sticks?

Make sure the stick is inserted firmly, and give the treats a few minutes to firm up before dipping or decorating.

➡️ Can I make these with flavored Rice Krispies Treats?

Definitely! Try chocolate, strawberry, or any seasonal flavors for a fun twist.

Equipment

  • wax paper
  • 8 long lollipop sticks
  • free printable optional
  • ribbon optional

Ingredients 

  • 1 box Rice Krispies Treats, 8 pack, unwrapped
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup white candy melts
  • confetti sprinkles
  • spring or pastel colored M&M’s Milk Chocolate candies

Instructions 

  • Prep the Treats: Lay out waxed paper long enough to hold all Rice Krispies Treats without them touching. Insert one lollipop stick into each treat and place them on the waxed paper.
  • Make the Marshmallow Coating: In a small saucepan, heat the peanut butter and mini marshmallows over low heat. Stir occasionally until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
  • Coat with Marshmallow: Use a spatula to spread the marshmallow mixture on the front side of each Rice Krispies Treat. Return each one to the waxed paper and let them cool slightly.
  • Add the Candy Layer: Melt the white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl according to package directions. With a spoon or pastry brush, coat the marshmallow-covered side of each treat. Let the excess drip down the sides.
  • Decorate: Immediately top with confetti sprinkles and spring-colored M&M’s. Let everything set completely.
  • Add Final Touches: Cut out the printable circles, punch a hole at the top and bottom, and slide them onto each lollipop stick. Tie a ribbon into a small bow just above the circle for a festive touch.

Notes

  • Chocolate Rice Krispie treats would also be delicious.
  • Melt the peanut butter and marshmallows low and slow to avoid burning.
  • Decorate immediately after coating so toppings stick well.
  • Add printable tags and ribbon for cute Easter gifting!
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Keep them in a single layer to avoid smudging the decorations.
