Last year we made these delicious green Shamrock Rice Krispies Treats:

9. Gold bars like these beauties made from pretty paper and Rice Krispies Treats from Twig & Thistle. (One of my fave design blogs. So glad I downloaded her free pdf of the coolest Valentine’s Day fruit stickers last year before she decided to sell them!).
10. Rainbow cupcakes like these from my super awesome bloggy bestie at Critters and Crayons. Maybe I’ll top them with rainbow-swirled frosting based on this tute from Chica and Jo.
11. Rainbow cookies like these colorful little cloud-tipped, personalized ones from The Sweet Adventures of Sugarbelle. (She’s my cookie blog addiction! I dare you to try and tear yourself away.)

Oh, cool! I have a bloggy bestie? Awesome!
Thanks for the feature- Love the round-up! Your rice krispy treats look great! I made some valentine heart rice krispies that I had planned to use for the heart project fundraiser- the only problem was that I had to use a little milk chocolate with the white chocolate (for coating) because I didn’t have enough of the white. When I added the food coloring, it came out the color of vomit. Fail. 
Ewww
Red is hard in Rice Krispies Treats. The best I could ever get was fleshy pink.
