MICROWAVE: Easy Valentine’s Day Dessert

Heart shaped 🩷 Rice Krispies. I quickly made this treat in the microwave and the candy melts harden so it doesn’t get messy. Follow me for more easy holiday dessert ideas! PS. My sweater is linked on my LTK & Amazon storefront.

🩷Makes 12 hearts

VALENTINE'S HEART RICE KRISPIES

INGREDIENTS

🩷8 tablespoons butter

🩷Two 10 oz packages mini marshmallows

🩷12 cups rice krispies cereal

🩷12 oz package pink candy melts

🩷Valentines sprinkles

EQUIPMENT

🩷 Heart shaped cookie cutter

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large bowl microwave marshmallows until melted. Stir in melted butter and mix until combined.

2. Add rice krispies to the bowl and fold in to combine.

3. Arrange the mixture into an even layer forming a rectangle on a parchment lined baking sheet. Wet your hands with water or cooking oil to help prevent the rice crispy mixture from sticking to your hands. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden.

4. Using a heart shaped cookie cutter cut out the heart shapes. Give any excess scraps to your hungry husband, wife or kids.

5. In a small bowl melt the pink candy melts at 30 second intervals stirring in between. Make sure to not overheat as the candy will begin to harden rendering it useless.

6. Dip the tops of each rice crispy treat heart into the candy melts and immediately sprinkle with your favorite Valentine's Day sprinkles.

Valentine's Day is a celebration of love, and what better way to express affection than by sharing delightful homemade desserts? Rice Krispies treats are a classic favorite that can be quickly prepared, making them an ideal choice for holiday festivities. To add a festive flair to these treats, consider using heart-shaped cookie cutters, as suggested in the recipe instructions. This not only makes for a visually appealing presentation but also enhances the holiday spirit. You can personalize these treats by using different colored candy melts and sprinkles to match your Valentine's Day theme, be it pink, red, or even white! Additionally, these treats offer flexibility in terms of ingredients. Feel free to incorporate your favorite mix-ins such as chocolate chips, nuts, or even dried fruits like cranberries for a varied texture and flavor profile. Kids can also join in the fun by helping to decorate the treats, making it a bonding activity that promotes creativity. For an extra touch, package the treats in festive bags or boxes to give as gifts to friends and family. Including a personal note can make the gift more heartfelt, transforming a simple dessert into a cherished token of appreciation. This Valentine’s Day, celebrate love and joy by creating these delightful Rice Krispies hearts, perfect for sharing with those you care about.
