DIY Rice Krispies Treat Paint Brushes
For Izzy’s birthday this year we themed it around what she loves. It was between Mickey and Minnie Mouse, a dance party and an art party. We went with the art party and I’m so glad because it turned out beautiful! You can see the whole party here.
I’m sharing a fun and easy DIY Rice Krispies treat recipe with you all!
I seriously never made Rice Krispies treats before this and they turned out adorable and delicious.

DIY Rice Krispie Treat Paint Brushes
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 4 cups of mini marshmallows or 1 10oz package marshmallows
- Melting chocolates (white or colored)
- Optional: Food coloring (if you can't find colored chocolates)
- Large Wooden Popsicle Sticks
Instructions
- In a large saucepan melt the butter on low heat. Add the marshmallows and keep stirring as it melts.
- Once completely melted remove from heat.
- Add Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal and stir until evenly coated.
- Press the mixture into a 13 X 9 pan. (Make sure to coat the pan with cooking spray first.)
- Once it has cooled a bit, cut into rectangles.
- Place each one onto wax paper.
- Melt one color at a time of the colored dipping chocolates (or add dye to the while ones).
- Dip each wooden stick into the melted chocolate and then stick it into the rectangular treat. (This will be the brush handle)
- Let sit for a minute to harden.
- Dip the top of the treat (the other end). Take a spoon and drizzle some on to allow for the dripping paint look. Lay flat on wax paper to dry.
- Store in large zip lock bags with wax paper until serving.

Thank you! These were also delicious
I can’t wait to make these!

Yummy, these are so cute I ALMOST don’t want to eat them. lol
Lol! Yes
I actually made a version of these one year for my son’s birthday party. They turned out so cute and we’re so yummy!
It’s pretty simple right? I thought it was going to be a big to do
I SO want a reason to make these!
They were so easy.. and yummy
Thanks for the recipe! I’m going to use it for my girls’ 4th birthday party!
It was super fun & easy to make! ☺️ they will love it
Do you refrigerate If party isn’t till tomarrow
I didn’t. I left them wrapped in zip lock bags though
These look beautiful and delicious. If you wanted to “decorate” Rice Krispie treat “cake” to look like Daniel Tiger, would you use colored chocolate or frosting? I’ve never made Rice Krispie treats before either!
Hmmmm the chocolate dries on easily, but if you use fondant that would work well
How far in advance can you make these if you place in clear bags after finishing?
For freshness at a party I’d make them no more than 24 hours ahead.
So do these stay together with no problem? I noticed most recipes call for pre-made treats.
Yes! I made them the night before ☺️
