FOOTBALL RICE KRISPIE TREATS

Read...


Rice Krispie Treats are an American staple! They are personally one of my absolute favorite treats! Today I am sharing my Football Rice Krispie Treats.  I am putting a small twist on an old classic by using the cocoa krispies versus the regular ones. The cocoa krispies give a fabulous chocolate flavor and also lend their fabulous brown color which is perfect for the football treats I was wanting to make! I added some laces and details with some store bought vanilla frosting and these football rice krispie treats are sure to score a touchdown with your fans!
