Rice Krispie Coconut Snowballs are a delightful treat that combines the sweet and crunchy flavors of Rice Krispie cereal with the tropical taste of coconut. These bite-sized treats are perfect for any occasion, whether it be a holiday gathering or a simple snack for the family.
Cook: Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until marshmallows are melted.
Combine: Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the coconut extract and rice krispie cereal. Continue to stir until the cereal is well coated.
Assemble: Rub some butter on your hands and then shape the mixture into 1-inch balls. Immediately roll the balls in the coconut flakes, pressing the pieces in with your hands to coat. They can be enjoyed immediately or stored at room temperature until ready to serve.
