Penguin Rice Krispie Treats

Aren’t they the cutest little treats you have ever seen? I am in love!

And the best part is how incredibly easy these penguin treats are to make — no fancy decorating skill required.

Getting all your ingredients and supplies together is the most difficult part (and it just requires shopping). Making them is a breeze!

How to Make Penguin Rice Krispie Treats

Start by gathering everything that you will need: Rice Krispie Treats, black candy melts, white candy melts, candy eyes, and orange M&Ms.

To save time we used pre-made Rice Krispies Treats for this recipe. But, you could totally make your own if you want you this bakery-style Rice Krispies treats recipe. It’s your call.

You will also need popsicle sticks and either parchment or wax paper to make these cute little creatures.
