Rice Krispies and Marshmallow Easter Baskets

Pane-Bistecca

My poor guests must love sweets, because these Rice Krispies and Marshmallow Easter baskets not only look cute, but they are!!! I searched the net for something original with Rice Krispies. At lil’luna I found what I was looking for, but I simplified the recipe a bit and changed the amounts. I think these baskets are cute, suitable for Easter, also in color, all pastel.

I hope my guests like them!

Total time

6 h 35 min

Ingredients

120 g colorful Marshmallows
250 g Rice Krispies
2 tbsp Butter
1 Pack (450 g) Vanilla Butter Cream Icing from Betty Crocker
6 Drops green Food Coloring
M&M’s in all Colors
or Chocolate Eggs

Instructions

Step 1

Put the butter and the marshmallows into a wide bowl and melt them in the microwave for 2 minutes. Even if they look like not yet melted, don’t heat them longer. Just mix them with a spoon until the marshmallows are liquid. Now mix the rice Krispies into the mass and mix well until they stick together.

Step 2

Grease a mini-muffin tray and with a teaspoon fill them with the sticky mass and flatten them. Let the baskets dry for at least 6 hours but they will stay sticky because of the amount of sugar from the marshmallows.

Step 3

Put the Vanilla Buttercream Icing into the bowl of the kitchen machine and wipe it up. Add the food coloring and mix well.

Step 4

Put the mixture into a piping bag with a star tulle. Pipe roses onto the little rice Krispies baskets. Decorate with a M&M’s or a chocolate egg.

Notes

Aren’t they cute? (In the truest sense of the word)
