These rice krispie snowballs are so cute and yummy- little golf ball-sized rice treats dipped in delicate white chocolate and topped with festive sprinkles, need I say more? They're the perfect holiday treat for parties or for giving!

1 - 10 Oz. Package Marshmallows
6 Cups Rice Krispies Cereal
2 - 14 Oz. Bags White Candy Melts

Let's Play!
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium low heat.
Add in the marshmallows and allow them to melt completely.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Rice Krispies.
Pull out heaping tablespoons from the pan and roll into balls. Add a candy cane into the center of each ball.


Place your finished treats into the fridge for about 15 minutes to cool down.
