Rice Krispie Fondue Bite Treats

I really love Rice Krispie Treats, and even though they are simple to make, sometimes you just don’t have the time to whip up a batch. The pre-packaged variety comes in handy for a quick snack or as the base for creating some amazing fast treats. This chocolate fondue recipe is just thick enough that you can pre-dip bite-sized servings and decorate them as a fun little dessert. These little fondue bites are perfect to take to a party or serve to your family on movie or game night.

WHY WE THINK YOU WILL LOVE THIS FONDUE KRISPIE TREAT

In case you needed more convincing, here are a few reasons why we think you will really enjoy this simple dessert.

• So easy to make. Made with only 6 basic ingredients, this recipe is so simple to assemble. You will be enjoying a tasty twist on a classic dessert in no time.
• Less waiting, more eating. Although I love the act of eating fondue, the waiting for it to heat up is agonizing. With this fondue variation, we heat the chocolate fondue on the stove and dip all our treats in at once. This means more time enjoying these bite sized treats and less time staring at a pot.
• Basic ingredients. It will not break the bank for a quick trip to the store and you may even have some left over ingredients to make more fondue bites.

Rice Krispie Treat Fondue Bites

Chocolate chips: For the base of the fondue, you will need a 12 ounce bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Heavy cream: To make the chocolate fondue nice and creamy, add in 3/4 cup of heavy cream.

Marshmallows: You will need 2 cups of miniature marshmallows to give the chocolate fondue even more amazing taste and texture.

Rice Krispie Treats: Using 8 pre-packaged Rice Krispie Treats makes this recipe incredibly simple and fast. You can use homemade rice krispie treats if you would like as well.

Candy: For a great candy topping, you will need 3/4 cups of plain M&M’s, crushed into pieces. For even more tasty toppings, use 3/4 cup of Peanut Butter M&M’s too.

How to make easy Krispie Fondue Bites

Prep

Start by cutting each of the Rice Krispie Treats into 6 squares, set them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.

Next, place the M&M’s in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a mallet. Then transfer all of the crushed M&M pieces onto a small plate, set aside. 

Melt chocolate

In a medium saucepan, melt together the chocolate chips and heavy cream, over medium-low heat. Be sure to stir frequently to avoid scorching the ingredients. Continue to stir until smooth and then add the marshmallows, keep stirring until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Then stir in the vanilla extract and remove from the heat.

Fondue

Once the chocolate is melted, proceed to dip each small square of Rice Krispie Treat into the fondue mixture, coating the top half of each square. Then immediately dip the chocolate side onto the crushed M&Ms until well coated. Repeat with all remaining Rice Krispie Treats pieces. Place each piece back on the parchment paper.

Let the krispie treats cool for 2-3 minutes, then serve and enjoy!

HOW LONG ARE NO BAKE S’MORES BARS GOOD FOR?

These tasty little treats can last about a week or so in an airtight container a room temperature. That said I doubt they will even last that long, they are that good.

HOW DO YOU KEEP RICE KRISPIE TREATS SOFT?

Here are several ways to keep rice krispie treats soft. They’re simple, but effective!

• Do not use stale marshmallows. Seriously. Rice Krispie Treats are not the treat to use up those old, hard marshmallows! Recently purchased marshmallows work best.
• Do not overcook. You want to heat the marshmallows until they’re soft and beginning to lose shape. I find it’s easiest to not overcook marshmallows if I heat them in the microwave. Mine take just over 1 minute to be ready- that’s it!
• Don’t forget the butter. The marshmallow-butter combination helps keep the treats soft and chewy, so don’t leave it out or reduce the measurement.
• Don’t chill in the refrigerator. Even if you want them to set quickly, I find this just dries the marshmallow treats out more quickly.
• Store in an airtight container on the counter top.
