There is nothing like Rice Krispie treats to make you feel like a kid at heart. These treats are not only the perfect dessert to make with your child but they are also super delicious.
I have made Rice Krispies treats for many occasions. Always trying to personalize them to the certain occasion I am attending, so when I found this video tutorial I was pretty excited.
