Merry Christmas! This is one of my favorite holiday treats to make, the brown butter really makes it taste like the holidays!🎅🏼🎄 It’s super simple, festive, and absolutely delicious. Make sure to give this one a try!

- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

- 1 bag of mini marshmallows

- Green food coloring

- 6 cups Rice Krispies

- Sprinkles (optional)

- Melted white chocolate

- Pretzel sticks

Toppings:

- Melted white chocolate

- Star sprinkles

- Sprinkles

Directions:

1. In a large pot over medium heat, melt and brown unsalted butter until a golden dark brown color forms.

2. Add marshmallows. Stir until semi melted. Add food coloring and mix until fully melted.

3. Next, add Rice Krispies and mix until fully incorporated. Working fast, flatten out on a greased 9x9 baking tray making sure that all sides are equal. Add any sprinkles at this time also. Cool for an hour or overnight.

4. Spray a sharp knife with cooking spray. Cut into 3 long pieces. Cut each long piece into 4 or 5 triangles. Eat the scraps!🤤

5. Using a bamboo skewer, make a hole for the tree trunk. Snap 1/3 of the pretzel stick, cover with white chocolate, and stick into the hole. Do this to all of them and let dry.

6. Time to decorate! Using the rest of the melted white chocolate, drizzle over the trees. Quickly decorate however you like with a star on top.

7. Let everything set for a minute or 2. Serve immediately, enjoy!
