I’m hosting a Valentine playdate this week for my Kindergartener and some of his friends. So this weekend I tested my idea for an easy Valentine snack, Cupid’s Arrow Rice Krispies Treats.
I think they turned out really well! And so did my boys. I caught them sneaking them just after I photographed them. I live with two comedians… {grin}
To make my heart Rice Krispies Treats with cupid arrow, you’ll need:
- Rice Krispies treats prepared (still warm)
- Heart cookie cutter
- Butter (for your hands and the cookie cutter)
- Lollipop sticks
- Paper straws
- Pink paper (triangle for tip and rectangle with triangle cut out of one end and fringed for feather)
- Glue
- Scissors
- Wax paper
And here are the super easy steps for making shaped Rice Krispies:
- Apply butter to your hands, your cookie cutter and a bit to your wax paper.
- Mold your Rice Krispies into the cookie cutter and set aside each heart.
- Once you’ve made all your hearts, pierce them with a lollipop stick.
- Cut a paper straw and slip it on each end of the lollipop stick.
- Cut paper as noted above, glue to straw ends
It’s that simple to make Cupid’s Arrow Rice Krispies Treats. Happy Monday and Valentine week everyone!
And as always I hope you’re inspired to craft, bake, create and celebrate!
