Ingredients

  • 9 oz. marshmallow Peeps color or color combinations of your choice (about 24 Peeps), plus more for topping if desired
  • 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 3 tablespoon butter
  • ½ teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter)

Instructions

  • Lightly butter a 9x9 pan or line with parchment paper.
  • Add butter to a large saucepan over low heat and let it melt.
  • Add Peeps to the butter. If you're using different colored Peeps, keep them separated in the saucepan.
  • Let Peeps melt. You can gently stir them a little bit with a wooden spoon, but try to keep each color separate from each other.
  • Once mostly melted, add Rice Krispies and salt (if using) to saucepan and gently stir together until just combined with colors swirled together.
  • Press Rice Krispies mixture into the bottom of your prepared pan. Top with additional Peeps if desired.
  • Let Peeps Rice Krispies treats cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Store the cooled Rice Krispies treats in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week.
