Easy American Flag Rice Krispie Treats

By Manuela Williams

Do you need a super easy, no fuss, red white and blue dessert to cap off your Patriotic Holiday Party? Well I have a really good one to share with you today! I love Rice Krispie Treats (as evidenced by all the Krispie Treat recipes I’ve already shared). These are very simple to make and really cute too. Something that everyone will love! American Flag Rice Krispie Treats!

Rice Krispie Treats are very easy to make but you can also use store bought ones to make these patriotic krispie treats more convenient. For homemade Rice Krispie Treats all you have to do is melt 3 tablespoons of butter and 1 package (10 ounces) of Marshallows in the microwave on high (in a microwave safe bowl) for about 2-3 minutes. Stir that together until smooth and then add 6 cups of Krispie Cereal. Stir that all together and then press it all into a 13×9 inch pan that has been coated with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper. Allow it all to cool and set and then cut into rectangles. Then on to the decorating!

American Flag Rice Krispie Treats

*Makes 8 servings. 1 Rice Krispie Treat = 1 serving.

Ingredients:

1 8 ct package of Kellogg’s Rice Krispie Treats or homemade treats
Kellogg’s Rice Krispie treats (54 count package in case you need a lot)
red Wilton gel icing
blue Wilton gel icing

Directions:

If you’re using the packaged Kellogg’s Rice Krispie Treats, then open each Rice Krispie treat and discard the wrappers.

How to make American Flag Rice Krispie Treats
Open the blue gel icing and snip the end of the tube open using a pair of scissors. Gently squeez the blue icing out of the tube making a small outline of a square in the corner of the Rice Krispie Treat. Fill the square in with the icing.

Red White and Blue Rice Krispie Treats
Next, open the red icing and carefully add 4 stripes to the Rice Krispie Treat as shown in the photo: 2 next to the blue square and another 2 red stripe below it.

Patriotic Krispy Treats

That’s it! Wasn’t that easy and aren’t they cute! This recipe is for 8 treats but you certainly have waaay more icing that you can use in those tubes so you can make as many as need.
