You would think with all the versions of Rice Krispies TreatsĀ®Ā that I’ve attempted to concoct over the years I’ve been blogging here that my kids would be sick of them. I can assure you, that’s not the case in the house! Pretty much every time I bring home the giant box of Rice Krispies from the store, they begin asking when I’m making treats for them. I’m actually quite addicted to Rice Krispies… the bowl version. So sometimes I don’t get around to making them because I’ve already eaten half of the box for breakfast and snacks! Carrot cake and Rice Krispies Treats though… now THAT is a match made in Spring heaven! Growing up, I always looked forward to dessert after Easter dinner with my family because carrot cake was one of my top favorite desserts. My mom always made it with classic cream cheese frosting, just perfect to celebrate!Ā I really love how there’s actual carrot cake batter in the marshmallow mixture of the treats. You can even see the little orange carrot flecks as you bite, and the cream cheese frosting drizzle? Well that just takes these treats over the top to make something extra special!Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Here are some more of my favorite Rice Krispies Treat recipes: Ā Ā Toasted Coconut Rice Krispies Treats Ā Ā Ā Ā Milky Way Stuffed Rice Krispies Treats Ā Carrot Cake Rice Krispies Treats Everyone's favorite classic treat with a special Easter twist!
