Minted Rice Krispy Treats

Minted Rice Krispy Treats are a delicious twist on a classic treat. Amy from My Name is Snickerdoodle is sharing the recipe today!

Growing up rice crispy treats were almost a staple. Now days it seems like they are almost a gourmet treat! I’ve seen them paired with unusual flavors and toppings. I still really enjoy a classic plain square all on it’s own, but it is fun to play around with something that is so simple.

Did you know that Ande’s Mint Chips make for the perfect dipping chocolate! It melts really smooth and hardens nice and glossy! Just think of the possibilities!

Since mint can be a pretty strong flavor, I cut my squares into a bite size. They turned out not only delicious, but kind of adorable too! Who doesn’t like mini desserts?
