RICE KRISPY POPS

Steps:

• I used the following: Wilton round cookie-pop tray, cookie-pop sticks, assorted color icing and metallic ties all of which can be found in the cake decorating section of a party store or craft store. Saran type wrap was used to wrap the pops.
• Spray cookie tray lightly with Pam.
• Melt margarine in heavy pan over medium heat.
• Add marshmallows and stir continuously until smooth.
• Add vanilla.
• Add nonpareils and stir.
• Turn heat off but leaving pot on burner add the cereal. and stir until evenly mixed.
• Put some in mold, add stick and put some more on top and with damp hands press lightly.
• Have fun decorating, let dry and over pop with plastic wrap and fasten with ties to secure the wrap. I put them in a basket filled with Styrofoam that I decorated.

RICE POP DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Line an A4-sized baking tray with cling film, or butter a tray of doughnut moulds. Very gently melt the chocolate, butter, golden syrup and milk together in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water, or in a microwave by heating it in short blasts and stirring between each blast.
• Take the chocolate off the heat and mix into the rice pops, making sure they are all covered in the mixture.
• Spoon the rice pops onto the lined baking tray and press the mixture down firmly so it fills any gaps, or divide the mixture between the moulds. Set the mixture aside somewhere cool to set hard.
• Once set, if you used a tray, cut six doughnut shapes using a 9cm round cutter and a 2cm round cutter for the hole in the middle. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave and drizzle over the doughnuts, then top with sprinkles to decorate.

WATERMELON RICE KRISPIES TREATS

Steps:

• In a microwave or in a large saucepan over low heat, melt marshmallows, oil and extract if using; stir until smooth. Remove from heat; remove half of the mixture to another saucepan over low heat. Stir in the green coloring; add 3 cups cereal and stir to combine. Stir the pink coloring and red coloring to remaining marshmallow mixture; add remaining 3 cups cereal and stir to combine. Press half of the green mixture around inside edge of 2 lightly-greased 9-in. round cake pans using wax paper or a lightly-greased spatula. Pack the center with half the pink mixture; press half the chocolate chips into the surface of the pink portion. In a second cake pan, repeat with remaining mixtures. Cool to room temperature. Cut each portion into 12 wedges.

RICE KRISPIES TREATS LOLLIPOPS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or large microwavable bowl, melt butter and marshmallows.
• Stir until smooth.
• Remove from heat and stir in the cereal until it is evenly coated.
• Let the mixture cool for about 15 minutes or so, giving it a stir once in awhile.
• Butter you hands (important!) and then shape the treats into 2 inch balls, pressing gently so they are compact, not loose.
• Push a stick into each ball and set aside to cool.
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave or double boiler and stir until smooth.
• Dip the top of the treat balls into the chocolate and then sprinkle with the candy or sugar sprinkles.
• Lay on a wax paper lined tray until chocolate is hardened.
• For bake sales or potlucks, wrap each treat in plastic and tie with curling ribbon.
