Notes
Dip in melted white chocolate and drizzle with melted milk or dark chocolate.
Sprinkle the warm treats with seasonal sprinkles.
Add 1-2 cups of m&m’s, mini chocolate chips, peanut butter pieces, etc.
Try other similarly-sized cereal instead of rice crisp for chocolate or colorful marshmallow rice crispy treats.
