Flag Rice Krispy Treats
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 boxes of Rice Krispy Treats
- 3 bags of Marshmallows
- 2 sticks of butter
- red food coloring
- blue food coloring
First you want to start off by making two batches of Rice Krispy treats — one regular and one red. Add the red food coloring to the melted marshmallows once you remove from heat but before you pour the krispies in. Then you want to put each on a baking sheet and let cool for 10 min.
Once cool, cut each color into thirds. You can use foil or wax paper as a guide. Once in thirds then stack the red on bottom, then white, and repeat.
With the remaining four pieces, cut in half vertically. This will be the top part of the stripes next to the blue part where the stars would be.
Once you get that done, then make another batch of Rice Krispy treats, this time blue. Then let the blue krispies cool for a few minutes, until you are able to mold with your hands, Then gently place it area where you have the hole. Press to help keep shape of the flag.
Then wait for it to cool and harden together. Then warm a knife blade and cut your flag “loaf” into individual pieces. Flag treats for everyone!
