Rice Krispie Treat Wreaths
on Dec 15, 2013, Updated Aug 29, 2024
These Rice Krispie Treat Wreaths are so adorable and easy to make. We are always making Rcie Krispie Treats around our house. If you follow my blog, you probably already know that, ha ha. Over Thanksgiving vacation the kiddos and I were wanting to make up some krispie treats. The hubby recalled our Donut Pan that we had purchased (you can find this same pan on Amazon- Wilton Nonstick 6-Cavity Donut Pan) and thought it would make a great shape for a Rice Krispie Wreath. I was so excited and believed his idea would work great. It DID!
Rice Krispie Treat Wreaths
If you are a fan of Rice Krispie Treats and are wanting to make a festive Krispie Treat, throw these Rice Krispie Treat Wreaths together. They look great on a plate for a holiday party or in clear cellophane bags to give as a homemade gift. Just your basic Rice Krispie Ingredients and some green food coloring and you have a cute treat. We added some Fruit by the Foot for the ribbon and some holly and berry decorations to spruce them up a bit more. If you do not have the Wilton Donut Pan, consider forming them with a shape that you may have around your house to save on purchasing a pan.
