Main Ingredients
- 1 box Rice Krispie Treats
- 1 bag yellow candy melts
- 1 bag dark blue candy melts
- Small edible eyes
- 1 tube black cookie icing
- 1 tube grey cookie icing
Instructions
- Prepare rice krispie treats: Unwrap the Rice Krispie treats and set aside on a clean surface.
- Melt blue candy melts: Fill the bottom pot with water and heat on the stove over medium to high heat. When simmering, place a second pot on top, add the dark blue candy melts, and stir gently until fully melted.
- Dip into blue candy melt: Dip half of each Rice Krispie treat into the melted blue candy and place it on parchment paper to set.
- Chill treats: Refrigerate the dipped treats for 10 minutes to allow the blue candy coating to harden.
- Clean pot and melt yellow candy melts: While treats chill, clean the pot used for blue candy melts and melt the yellow candy melts using the same double boiler method.
- Dip into yellow candy melt and add eyes: Remove the treats from the fridge and dip the top half into the melted yellow candy melts. While still wet, place small edible eyes onto the yellow dipped side.
- Decorate the minions: Use grey cookie icing to pipe a frame around the eyes. Use black cookie icing to pipe side frames, smiles, and hair details on each treat.
- Dry and set: Allow the decorated Minion Rice Krispie Treats to sit undisturbed for 30 minutes to fully dry and harden.
Notes
- Use parchment paper for easy removal of treats after dipping.
- Be careful not to overheat candy melts to avoid burning.
- If candy melts stiffen, gently reheat using the double boiler method.
- The edible eyes can be substituted with small candy or icing dots if desired.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
