These Easter Bunny Rice Krispies Treats are not only delicious but absolutely adorable! They are so festive and perfect as homemade treats in Easter baskets!
In a large pot melt 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter over medium heat.
Once the butter has completely melted, stir in 4 cups mini marshmallows until melted through.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Add in 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal and 1 cup Cadbury mini eggs and mix all ingredients until evenly combined.
Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish and transfer the mixture to the pan. Press it down and smooth out the top to make it flat.
Allow the mixture to set for about 30 minutes.
Take a bunny-shaped cookie cutter (use butter or nonstick cooking spray on the bottom of the cutter so it doesn't stick) and cut out the shapes from the cereal mixture.
Place the cut treats back in the pan, on a tray or cookie sheet.
To decorate: melt a few Tablespoons of white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Take a spoon and dip into the melted chocolate then drizzle over the Rice Krispies treats.
While the chocolate is still warm add some pastel sprinkles and allow to set.
Once set, you can enjoy the treats or package them up for gifting later.
Notes
Don't throw out the leftover Rice Krispies after you cut out the bunny shapes. Decorate and enjoy those leftover shapes too!
These can be frozen, see my tips above on how to do that.
If you do not want to decorate just mix the sprinkles in with the chocolate eggs and cereal.
These can be cut into squares if you cannot find a bunny cookie cutter.
