Easter Egg Hunt Rice Krispies Treats

Inspired by a favorite springtime tradition, these fun & easy to make Easter Egg Hunt Rice Krispies® Treats are a must-make for your Easter celebration.

As always, all opinions are my own. 








The Easter Bunny is going to be making his rounds a little earlier this year than normal, but we are ready for him in our house. The soon-to-be treat filled baskets are ready to be assembled. Extra eggs have already been procured from the local farmers' market. And the Easter dinner menu is currently being planned as I type this. 




One part of our Easter menu that is already handled & planned out is the dessert. The youngest and I will be whipping up a batch of these super fun Easter Egg Hunt Rice Krispies Treats. :)





These bright and cheery Rice Krispies treats are inspired by one of our favorite things to do with Little Miss each spring- the city's annual Easter egg hunt at the local park. Kiddos from all over our hometown gather in excitement at the city park with baskets in hand. 




The egg hunt is sectioned off by age groups, and when the whistle is blown the kids go wild! They are all on the hunt for the handful of golden eggs in the field. Finding a golden egg means you get an extra special prize from the Easter bunny. We haven't snagged a golden egg yet, but I have a feeling this year is the year, folks. ;)





Golden egg or not, everyone gets to be a winner with these Easter Egg Hunt Rice Krispies® Treats...

During the holiday season I end up spending quite a bit of my time in the kitchen whipping up tasty goodies for holiday get-togethers, classroom parties, and for family & friends. 








Oftentimes, I like to get the kiddos involved whether it is just them helping to cut out the cookies, decorating them with sugars or sprinkles, or helping me give a classic treat a fun & festive twist for the holidays. 








Rice Krispies Treats happen to be a year-round go-to sweet treat for my family and I. But for this holiday season, we decided to give them a sparkling makeover perfect for that next holiday party or get-together with these Sparkling Snowflake Rice Krispies Treats! :)








We started with the classic simple, 3 ingredient recipe for Rice Krispies treats, but transformed them into a sparkling winter wonderland treat with a snowflake cookie cutter, a little white chocolate, and some pretty sparkling sugars...
