Like I’ve said in the past, I absolutely love rice krispy treats. They seriously are one of my most favorite treats, and the great thing about them is that they are so simple to make. Since cake pops are such a hit right now, I figured why not make some krispy pops. They would be simple, easy and yet delicious. The best part about making cake pops, is that you can turn them into almost anything that you want. With my childhood memory of looking for Rudolph, I thought what would be better than making tiny Rudolph’s as a token of my past. These Reindeer Krispy Pops are a perfect treat for the holidays!
