Equipment

  • 9 x 13" Pan This Anolon non-stick 9 x 13" cake pan comes with a lid for easy storage. Great for cakes, brownies and bars!
  • Glass Mixing Bowls These glass mixing bowls are microwave safe, making them perfect for making cereal treats.
  • Rubber Scrapers These Cuisinart rubber scraper spatulas are fantastic for fillings, batters, and so much more!

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Tablespoons butter
  • 5 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 4-6 oz. white chocolate candy melts
  • M&M’s® Easter Sundae candies
  • Easter M&M’s® Milk Chocolate candies

Instructions
 

  • Spray a 9 x 13" pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 45-60 seconds. Add the marshmallows and toss gently in the melted butter. Microwave the marshmallows for 1 min 30 seconds. Stop to stir. Melt for another 30-60 seconds until marshmallows are completely melted. Add the rice cereal to the melted marshmallows, and combine completely. Pour mixture into the prepared pan, and press evenly. Let the cereal treats set to cool completely, for at least 1 hour.
  • Once cereal treats have cooled, begin cutting out round cereal treat shapes with round cookie or biscuit cutters. Use any size desired.
  • Melt the white chocolate candy melts according to package directions. Using paper straws and/or lollipop sticks, dip the end into the melted chocolate, and then insert into the round cereal treat, about half way into the side of the treat.
  • Use the remainder of the melted chocolate, coat the top sides of the pops, and decorate with the M&M’s® Easter Sundae candies and Easter M&M’s® Milk Chocolate candies using a variety of color combinations. Let cereal treats cool completely, at least 1 hour, before moving. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

Notes

The larger M&M’s® Easter Sundae candies work well for the center of the flower, and the smaller Easter M&M’s® Milk Chocolate candies work well as the exterior petals. Decorate with green ribbon to give the pops the looks of a leafy stem.
