Instructions

  • Add sprinkles if desired.
  • Let the chocolate set for 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Store chocolate-dipped Rice Crispy treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If your kitchen is warm, refrigerate them to keep the chocolate firm, but let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving so the treats stay soft.
Freeze in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer-safe container for up to one month. Thaw at room temperature before serving. They are also a great make-ahead dessert for parties since the chocolate helps seal in freshness.
