White Chocolate Rice Krispie Pops
My daughter Jersey, 6 years old looks forward to the after school treats that I make. But she looks forward to sharing them the next day with teachers, her school’s principal or friends even more. So when holidays roll around, she starts planning early and I am talking like a month or two before the treats that I will be making. Of course, she does assist when at all possible.

How do you make White Chocolate Rice Krispies Pops

  • In a large saucepan combine butter and marshmallows. Stir constantly over medium-high heat until marshmallows are completely melted.

  • Once butter and marshmallows are completely combined and melted, remove from heat and add Rice Krispies cereal; gently stir until well combined.

  • Using a cookie dough scoop or large tablespoon (I prefer the scoop), form the Rice Krispies treats into little balls on a sheet of parchment paper. Continue to scoop out until no Rice Krispies remain. I made 48 balls using my cookie scooper.

  • Note: if your cookie scoop starts to get sticky, then lightly spray with cooking spray just once and continue on scooping, I did this two times while I scooped out the treats.

  • Let the Rice Krispies treats set on the parchment paper for 5-10 minutes, then taking one Rice Krispies treat at a time, roll then into a smooth ball and place back on parchment paper.

  • In a glass measuring cup or bowl, add 1 cup of the white chocolate melting chips, heat for 1 minute in the microwave, then stir vigorously. Return back to the microwave and heat another 30 seconds to a minute, and stir again until all the chocolate has melted and is smooth. You will need to repeat this step about 1/2 way through your treats, to dip the remaining Rice Krispies pops.

  • Using a fork place one treat at a time in the melted white chocolate, pick up the treat with the fork again, once it is completely covered and gently tap the fork on the cup or the ball to get off the extra chocolate. Place the Rice Krispies treat back onto the parchment paper and repeat.

  • If you are decorating the pops right away and not adding any additional chocolate, once you have placed the Rice Krispie treats on the parchment after being dipped in the chocolate, top with sprinkles or your choice of edible decoration.
  • Let all the chocolate harden on the Rice Krispie treats. Then pick up and insert one white cake pop stick into the bottom of the Rice Krispie treat and set it aside; finish the rest of the pops using the remaining cake pop sticks and Rice Krispie treats.
