Servings 8
Ingredients
- Store bought Rice Krispies Treats or homemade Rice Krispies bars
- Lollipop or Craft sticks optional
- Icing or Green Candy Melts
Instructions
- A sharp knife is necessary.
- Cut your rice krispies treats into small squares. If using the store bought rice krispies bars simply cut the rectangle into a square and bonus this leaves a few yummy tidbits ready for snacks!
- Think 4's!
- Using the rice krispies square, cut off the four corners.
- Using the rice krispies square with the four corners cut off - cut a small V in the middle of each side (4 sides, 4 V's)
- Shamrocks are really just hearts! Your choice, 4 V's = four leaf pop or 3 V's = 3 leaf pop.
- Using your fingers (with disposable gloves), press the side of each heart gently to create each rounded heart. Rice Krispies are very flexible!
- Insert the lollipop or craft stick in the middle of the Shamrock Pop.
- Voila! You are done.
Notes
Decorating The Shamrocks
Optional! Candy melts or chocolate can be melted to add a layer of color to the lollipops. Icing can also be used along with jimmies if desired.
Turn the rice krispies shamrock into a Lollipop with craft or popsicle sticks.
