These Christmas Rice Krispies Treats are so fun and easy to make. I started with premade Rice Krispies Treats, but you can easily make your own and come back to this tutorial.

Reindeer Rice Krispies Treats are a really easy kid-friendly activity. You’ll want to melt the chocolate for the kids, and then let it cool down a bit before letting them work. They will have so much fun, and I am sure they will give the reindeer so much personality!

How to make Christmas Rice Krispies treats

Place parchment paper on a baking tray.

Place chocolate chips in a piping bag or plastic ziplock bag. Melt the chocolate for (2) 30-second increments, carefully kneading the bag in between. Continue kneading until melted.

Cut a small hole into the tip of the piping bag (or corner of the bag) and pipe on the antlers. You can practice on parchment paper if you want to beforehand.

Place two chocolate dots where you want the eyes to go, and place the candy eyeballs on top. Do the same for the nose and put the m&m on it. Work quickly so that the chocolate doesn’t set before you put the candies on it.

Allow the chocolate to set. This can take up to 30 minutes to an hour depending on how humid your home is.

Description

Reindeer Rice Krispies Treats are a really easy kid-friendly activity. You’ll want to melt the chocolate for the kids, and then let it cool down a bit before letting them work. They will have so much fun, and I am sure they will give the reindeer so much personality!


Scale

Ingredients

  • 12 rice cereal bars (I bought prepackaged ones for this to make it quick and easy, but you can also make your own rice krispie trieats.)
  • 1/4  cup chocolate chips or chocolate almond bark
  • 24 medium sized candy eyeballs
  • 12 red m&m candies, or other red candy

Instructions

  1. Place parchment paper on a baking tray.
  2. Place chocolate chips in a piping bag or plastic ziplock bag. Melt the chocolate for (2) 30 second increments, carefully kneading the bag in between. Continue kneading until melted.
  3. Cut a small hole into the tip of the piping bag  (or corner of the bag) and pipe on the antlers. You can practice on parchment paper if you want to beforehand.
  4. Place two chocolate dots where you want the eyes to go, and place the candy eyeballs on top. Do the same for the nose and put the m&m on it. Work quickly so that the chocolate doesn’t set before you put the candies on it.
  5. Allow the chocolate to set. This can take up to 30 minutes to an hour depending on how humid your home is.

Notes

These can keep for a couple weeks in an airtight container, with parchment paper between each layer.

You can easily make these into popsicles by carefully inserting popsicle sticks into the bottom of the bars.

If you loved this post, you’ll love the Total Beginner’s Guide to Baking.

In the Total Beginner’s Guide to Baking, I break down all the things that you should know to be a better baker.

After reading through this guide you will know how to accurately measure any ingredient, and how to measure honey without having it stick to the cup! (Soooo annoying.)

There’s also an article with tips on how to read through recipes. It sets you on the right foot before you even start baking anything.

I have a habit of baking AS I read through the recipe. So, I often miss a step, or screw up something that is explained in more detail lower on the page…. (will I ever learn?!!… Looking at my track record, no, probably not!)

But, you, my friend, won’t have to throw out so many ingredients because you have this article to help you through the recipe AND a worksheet to write down the important details before starting.

Anyways, this guide is 22 pages of helpful resources for the beginner AND intermediate baker. I am sure you will find it insanely useful on your baking journey.

Have fun baking!
