What kid doesn't love homemade Rice Krispies Treats. These watermelon treats are perfect for summer.
​​​
You will need,
- 9 cups of Rice krispies
- 9 cups of mini marshmallows ( about 1 1/2 bags of marshmallows )
- 6 tablespoons of butter
- Chocolate chips to liking
- Red and green food coloring
​​​
Grease a spring form pan and set aside.
In a large microwave safe bowl mix 4 cups of marshmallows and 3 tablespoons of butter. Put the bowl in the microwave and start with one minute. If it's still not melted microwave for anther 30 seconds. The marshmallows will get puffy.
​​​
Once the marshmallows and butter is melted add in the green food coloring. Then add 4 cups of rice krispies to the marshmallow mix. After you have your green marshmallow mix place it around the outside of the greased spring form pan. And from experience I would know that you should grease your hands first.
When you finish putting the green in the pan start on the red.
I the large microwaveable bowl put the last 5 cups of the marshmallows and the last 3 tablespoons of butter in the bowl. Put the bowl in the microwave. Use the instructions up above to find when it's melted. Then add the red food dye and mix.
​​​
Once it's all mixed add 5 cups of rice krispies. Spray your hands again with non stick spray and put it in the middle of the green.
​​​
After you have it as shown above get the chocolate chips out. Then add them in to look like watermelon seeds.
​​​
Then you are done!
