Mummy Rice Krispie Treats

 Ingredients-

1 8 ct. box of Rice Krispie Treats

1 12 oz. bag of Wilton white chocolate candy melts

1 package of Wilton googly eyes (located in the Wilton candy section at major retailers)

1 small sandwich baggie

8 Wilton candy sticks (located in the Wilton aisle)

  Directions –

#1. Unwrap all the Rice Krispie treats and discard the wrappers. Take one candy stick and insert it into the base of the Rice Krispie treat and lay on a large plate. Repeat with all the Rice Krispie Treats. Once all the treats have a candy stick place the plate in the fridge about 20 minutes, just long enough for the treat to firm up a bit and make dipping them in chocolate easier.

#2. In a microwave safe dish, heat the white chocolate candy melts in 30 second increments. Stir once the 30 seconds is up and repeat until melted. My microwave usually takes about 2 and a ½ minutes to melt 12 oz. of chocolate.

Let the chocolate cool 3-4 minutes before dipping your treats.

  #3. Using a large spoon completely cover the Rice Krispie treat with chocolate, let the excess chocolate drip back into the bowl and lay the Rice Krispie treat on a plate. Take 2 googly eyes and place them on the Rice Krispie treat.

#4. Repeat step #3 with the rest of the Rice Krispie treats and place the plate back in the fridge for 15-20 minutes allowing the chocolate to set.

#5. Remove the treats from the fridge and scoop the remaining white chocolate into the sandwich baggie and snip the end. Squeeze the chocolate out onto the Rice Krispie treats starting at the top and working your way to the bottom going back and forth making it look like strips of fabric are covering the Rice Krispie treat.   Repeat with the other treats and place the plate back into the fridge to set – about another 15-20 minutes.

*Makes 8 servings. 1 Rice Krispie treat = 1 serving. If not serving immediately store in a cool dry place so that the chocolate doesn’t melt.
