I love Rice Krispie treats.
Like, love them so much I can’t stop eating them until they are gone. It’s bad people.
Bad for the jeans in my life that is. Me on the other hand…
well, I am good with more krispies in my life.
I should probably stop making them when no one is home with me.
Today’s White Chocolate Reese’s Krispie Hearts will make you want to eat the entire batch in one day. What? That’s not normal to do?
This batch of rice krispie treats starts out like a regular pan of krispies, but at the last minute you add a box of white chocolate pudding into the melted marshmallows. Pour in the cereal and stir until coated. Go ahead and press the hot mixture into a buttered pan. Yes, go ahead and lick the spoon. You know you want to.
But…you probably are going to burn your tongue. I know, because I do it every single time I make krispie treats.
I was at Target the other day and I just couldn’t resist buying a bag of the Reese’s hearts. Not that I can resist regular Reese’s, but there is something about cute fun shapes that makes me buy them even more. I didn’t have any idea what I was going to make with them. I just knew they had to come home with me. (Please tell me I am not alone in my random candy buying!!!)
Enter the White Chocolate Rice Krispies cooling on the counter. All of a sudden I knew I wanted to share my love of krispies, CandiQuik, and Reese’s all in one glorious ADORABLE treat! You start by cutting the white chocolate krispies into a heart shape just slightly bigger than the Reese’s hearts. Then drizzle the tops of the krispie hearts with white CandiQuik and drop a Reese’s heart on the top. (go ahead and eat the rest of the Reese’s while the chocolate is setting…I won’t tell 
Super easy! And so stinking cute!!!
The bonus part of cutting hearts from these white chocolate krispies???
Someone has to eat all the scraps!
It’s a rough job, but someone has to do it. ;-)

White chocolate rice krispie treats topped with white chocolate CandiQuik and a Reese's peanut butter heart.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the butter and marshmallows in a large saucepan. Heat and stir on medium heat until melted and smooth. Add the pudding and stir for about 1 minute so the pudding can dissolve. Stir in the cereal.
- Pour the cereal into a buttered 9x13 pan. Press gently and evenly. Let set about 15 minutes. Use a heart cookie cutter to cut out 15 hearts. Let cool completely.
- Drizzle the krispie hearts with the melted CandiQuik. Press a Reese's heart on top before the CandiQuik sets. Let set before serving.
Notes
You could also cut the rice krispie treats into squares and top with the melted chocolate and hearts.

Oh girl, you know how much I love Rice Krispie Treats. Then you go and add white chocolate and Reese’s??? Are you trying to make me fat? You are. I knew it!! I seriously wished we lived next door.

Mwhahwhaha! You figured out my evil “make everyone else fat” plan! You have no idea how much I wish we lived close. Think of all the shoe shopping and treat eating we could be doing!!!
I’m a sucker for Rick Krispies too! There was some in the house the other night and I was completely full from dinner but I still HAD to have a piece….then I felt too full….yuck! But, boy, did they taste good

Oh, how much I love these Jocelyn! I’d eat the whole bag of hearts before it even made it to the treats though.
