Ingredients

Simple ingredients are easy to find at the grocery store for this quick and easy fourth of July dessert.

• 12 pkg of Rice Krispie Treats
• 12 oz pkg White Chocolate Chips or white candy melts
• Cooking Spray
• About 3 oz red white and blue Sprinkles
• Sturdy Paper straws, lollipop sticks, or Popsicle sticks

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a work surface on the counter. I like to use these disposable counter covers for easy clean-up. You could also line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.

Step 2

Open all of the Rice Krispie treats from the box and line them up on your work surface. Insert the stick into each one.

You can currently find a big box of snack size, which are perfect for these 4th of July rice krispie treats, on Amazon right here.

Step 3

Spray a small saucepan with nonstick spray, dump the white chocolate chips into the pot and melt the white chocolate chips, stirring constantly over medium heat. Remove from heat when there are just little tidbits of chips remaining and continue to stir off the heat until all are melted.

You can also melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave at 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval.

Step 4

Dip the top half of each Rice Krispy Treat into the melted chocolate, and tap on the side of the pan to remove the drip. Place onto the parchment paper and drizzle the sprinkles over each one while the chocolate is still warm, moving quickly.

Step 5

Allow your delicious 4th of July Rice Krispie treats to cool completely. Serve and enjoy.

You can skip the stick if you like.

These are a great addition to a Patriotic dessert Charcuterie board.

You only need a little bit of time to crank out the easiest treat you can add to your arsenal of no bake recipes.

These delicious treats can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature on the counter for a couple of days.

Show your patriotic pride by serving this patriotic recipe for Memorial Day, Flag Day, Armed Forces Day, Independence Day, Veteran’s Day, July BBQs, or any of the Patriotic holidays or occasions.
