I love Rice Krispies Treats. I love them with chocolate on top. I love them with peanut butter mixed in. I love them the normal way. One of my favorite Rice Krispies Treats that I’ve made is our peppermint Krispie treats. They are the most perfect treat for Christmas time. Well, it’s not Christmas time quite yet, but it is fall and everything pumpkin spice is a great idea for this time of year.
I was making dinner for a friend who had just had surgery and needed a dessert that would be great for her two little boys. I’m pretty sure most kids love Rice Krispies Treats, so I came up with this pumpkin spice rice krispie treat dessert. They tasted fabulous. Even my husband who doesn’t love pumpkin spice couldn’t stop eating them. My little niece, who is 3 was obsessed with this treat. So needless to say, I think this treat is one that is perfect for any age.
I would have to say my most favorite part about making this pumpkin spice rice krispies treats would have to be how easy they are to make. I seriously made them in under 10 minutes. Anything that I can make in the kitchen under ten minutes and have it still taste delicious, is my type of treat.
