  10. I would like to try the ornaments with the Rolo’s as the top. I voting for two because I think that the cake is beautiful.

  14. I think the lil cupcakes are adorable! my mom always wud take a big marshmallow, dip in melted caramel/butter/sweetened condesnsed milk mixture and roll in krispies – that was 1 of her famous holiday treats that I like to share now w/my family!

  18. Your rice krispie cupcakes look good and they won’t break our healthy eating habits! (diet being a 4 letter word)

  22. The Christmas Tree treats are super cute but we made some Snowmen ones – came out ADORABLE!!! Plus my 2 daughters loved helping make them!!!

  24. I love the idea that Alicia had with the snowmen cut in 1/2 so the kids (or adults) could mix and match them to make them whole again. Cute idea!

  26. I just want to make the cupcakes! I was telling someone about them the other day. I like to use cake & jello molds to make rice krispy “cakes”.

  35. I saw several that are very nice, like Christmas trees, rolo ball ornaments, snowmen, etc. but I think that if I were to make one of the decorated recipes I would go with your Holiday cupcakes. Very pretty!!!

  37. I like a lot of the recipes on the Motherhood. “Rice Krispies Treats Ornaments” is one that caught my eye… very cute idea!

  43. WOW! There are soooo many cute ideas! We were planning on making some too and now I have quite a few ideas! Thanks! I liked them all but if you had me choose one, it would probably be the gingerbread krispy treats. They are too cute!

  44. I would love to make the layered Rice Krispies Treat Christmas Cake. Its so pretty. Thanks for all the recipes. My kids love Rice Krispies treats.

  45. I will be making our favorite Rice Krispies Gingerbread men cookie cutouts recipe, My Father is 88yrs old and that’s what I make for him every year for his christmas present, He told me last year that he looks foward to eating them as his snack after lunch. Even though he’s 88yrs old he’s still I kid at heart and eats the head off 1st ! I use redhots for the eyes and silver balls as the buttons and red shoelaces for the scarf. and just the simple Rice Krispies recipe ,I just spray the cookie cutter with non stick spray. The new recipe’s that I will be trying will be the Choc krispies cupcakes . Thank You ~Mary~

  51. oh, what a tough decision! I’m so impressed with how clever and creative The Motherhood is…My favorite recipe as far as taste goes, would have to be the original recipe (without any other flavors). As far as designs go, I usually don’t have the patience to mold the Rice Krispies into a shape (not to mention, I’m always in a hurry to eat my treats!). You’ve given me lots of good ideas. I think I’ll let my kids choose. I’ll make the recipe and let them have fun with the designs. Thanks for the giveaway.

  60. Wow…so many good ideas, it was difficult to chose. I liked Renae’s Snow Globe Peanut Butter Rice Krisies Treats

  67. I want to try your cupcakes and the Christmas trees decorated with lines of green frosting and red candies, both look very yummy!!

  86. Snow Globed Inspired Rice Krispies treat

    It’s a fun recipe that can be used all winter long and not just the holidays! Very clever and so cute!

  116. Amanda’s Fruity Shortcake looks like something i would love to the best~
    They all look so good though

  118. The Peppermint Mocha Treats sound like something I would like to try.

  119. I saw this one in a search on theMotherhood, and it sounds simple but lovely – perfect for quick-guest-treats:

    By Becki
    Sausage Things
    1 lb. bulk pork breakfast sausage, cooked and drained
    1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
    2 tubes crescent rolls
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cooked sausage with cream cheese and set aside. Separate crescent rolls into three pieces each. Top each piece with about 1 tsp. sausage and cream cheese mixture. Pinch seams to seal (will look like a little ball). Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes. These may be made the night before, covered and refrigerated, and baked the next day. Yield: 48 sausage things.

  120. Truth be told I would probably make your recipe above first. I have made many a rice krispie treat in my day and it never dawned on me to make them in small individual servings. Duh. How cute! I also liked the simplicity of the Christmas cake one and I liked the Gingerbread flavored recipes. It amazes me how creative you all are!

  124. I’d love to try this – Rice Krispies Treats Ornaments.
    Bet the grand kids would love to help!
    Thank you.

  132. I’d like to try the Peppermint Mocha Treats.
    Your “cupcakes” look great!!! Thank you!
    jackievillano at gmail dot com

  138. Never thought about making Krispie treats into Gingerbread people. Cute idea. I also like the one you show here — Krispie cupcakes. Sounds delicious.

  143. Hi and Happy Holidays! :) Well, in actuality, if I were to try to make any treats, it would be the basic one because I’m not a cook or regular kitchen user, so best start with the original type of Rice Krispie Treats. But from the site, the Chocolate Gingerbread Rice Krispies Treats sure sound good! :)

  144. Rice Krispies Treats Ornaments
    1/4 c. butter
    10 oz. package marshmallows
    6(ish) cups Rice Krispies
    extra butter
    colored sugar sprinkles and nonpareil sprinkles
    Rolo candies
    toothpicks
    Melt butter and marshmallows together. Mix well. Add Rice Krispies cereal. Mix until combined.

    With well-buttered hands (not a phrase I type every day!), shape sticky cereal mixture into balls. I got 6 balls out of one batch of Rice Krispies treats. Pack tightly.

    Sprinkle colored sugar or nonpareil sprinkles over each ball. Gently press sprinkles into the treats.

    Stick one end of a toothpick into the bottom of a Rolo candy. Plunge the other end of the toothpick into the Rice Krispy treat ball to attach the Rolo and make it look like the top of an ornament.

    I agreed to make these in oppose to putting up a tree…Yum!

  164. Definitely The Holiday Cupcakes! Soooooo many things I can add to make them festive and scrumptious!

  166. I would make the christmas tree treats. Great for all the little kiddies that will be at my home for christmas.

  167. I’d like to try the Coconut Lime ones or the Cheesecake Rice Krispies Treats Squares, but I’d probably tweak it a little.

  170. I like this recipe: Rice Krispie Treats Ornaments from Amy’s Finer Things blog and the Snow Globe Peanut Butter Rice Krispies from How To Have It All. Every recipe idea on this site is awesome though, hard to pick which ones to make with my children! :-)

  183. I like yours the best to be honest…I am a huge cupcake fan…I even have cupcake scented lotion and lipgloss..LOL..Or I also like the tree one!

  186. The Christmas trees are really cute, but I think I will try the cupcakes that are on this page 1st. Seems very easy!

  191. The Peppermint Mocha Trees. I have been thinking about making a holiday treat with peppermint this year, and hadn’t decided on which one. This could be it!

  197. The Christmas tree treats are just darling.. but can’t wait to try the cupcakes as well above.. this is going to be great for my daughter’s party tomorrow.

  201. The Chocolate Gingerbread man sounds yummy! And interesting combo that I am going to have to try out! :)

  214. I’d like to try the layered Rice Krispies Treat Christmas Cake! Thanks :)

  272. I’d like to try the Peppermint Mocha Treats. I love all 3 of the main ingredients, so to combine them sounds very interesting!

  277. I think I would like to make the treats that were creations based on snow globes…very original! I have a large collection of snow globes…I love them!

  286. I think my kids and I would love to try the Mismatched Rice Krispies Treats Gingerbread Men! Thanks for a great giveaway! :)

  292. I want to try the Rice Krispies Raspberry White Chocolate Cream Cheese Trifle… chocolate and cream cheese… sounds like rice krispy cheesecake! :D

  298. Actually I really do like your recipe the best..the cupcakes but if I had to choose another recipe to try it would probably be the snow globe one…just looks like a lot of work :)
