This Mint Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats recipe goes out to real minty chocolate lovers. For those in the UK, I recommend Mint Aero as the ultimate chocolate in this. A bar of mint chocolate goes into the topping, plus extra chocolates for decoration. For those unable to buy Aero, you could use any mint chocolate.
This an easy no-bake recipe. A few ingredients get melted down and stirred together before refrigerating. Once set, add over some melted chocolate and decorate, let chill again and that’s it! There is something super nostalgic about a Krispie Treat, which makes them extra delicious. I recommend making ahead for parties/after dinner snacks and cutting as needed.
The Rice Krispie layer does get a little peppermint extract added to it, but feel free to omit, or sub that chocFeel free to change the cereal (sub for GF Puffed rice cereal/coco pops etc) to suit your preferences! When heating the mixture at the beginning, be careful to keep the heat low so as not to burn the chocolate.
For these Mint Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats, I use a basic 8′ square pan (I like this one). If you want more fun no-bake recipe ideas, check out my Chocolate Orange Krispie Treats or this Vegan Coconut Chocolate Tart. For videos and baking inspiration, head on over to my Instagram.
