You bet… and happy eating… these Rice Krispies treats certainly are fun 😀
These are super cute, Jenn! I made my daughter a rice krispies layer “cake” for her 3rd birthday. I love the simplicity of these and will likely make them for my son’s birthday this month. Thanks for the idea.
Aren’t these fun? And I love that the kiddos get a stick to hold on to… just makes it more novel and less messy for those little fingers.
Does the stick slide in easily and does it stay put?
The stick stays pretty much in place!
