How to Make Chocolate Covered Rice Krispie Treats
  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter completely. Add in the mini marshmallows and stir continuously for about 5 minutes until gooey and smooth.
  3. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the Rice Krispies cereal. Mix gently until evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the mixture into the lined baking dish and press down firmly.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  6. Cut the Rice Krispie mixture into squares. Dip each square halfway into the chocolate, then place them back on parchment paper to cool.
  7. Top with colorful sprinkles if desired.
