These little guys got picked off one by one until they were completely gone off of the tray.

I love that because I know that the kids are enjoying these treats.

With my kids now mostly teenagers, that’s extra fun for me. I love that they still enjoy mom’s fun food treats.

I know that you’ll love my shortcut to these treats. Drum roll…I purchased the rice Krispies treats. I just decorated the pre-made treats and voila’ – done!

Of course, you can make a batch of rice Krispies if you want. I have a recipe for Rice Krispies Treats snowmen. You can use the basic recipe and cut the treats into bars instead of circles.  I just know that Christmas is  busy enough as it is. It’s nice to have one less things to do on the list.

How Long Can you Store Rice Krispies Treats?

• Rice Krispies treats are best if eaten within a day. They should stay soft for about 2 days. After air gets to the marshmallow mixture, it starts to harden

How Should I Store Rice Krispies Treats?

• They should be covered in an airtight container and stored at room temperature
