Rice Krispies Challenge #2: Summer Pastimes & Stuffed Peanut Butter Pops

It's that time again!! We are SO THRILLED to share our display for the Kellogg’s™ Rice Krispies™ Making Memories Challenge.

This challenges theme was:

FAVORITE SUMMER PASTIMES

We decided that one of our fondest Summer Memories was having a Lemonade Stand and Bake Sale.

What kid hasn't had a lemonade stand and loved it? Especially with this custom Lemonade stand we made from scratch.

For our main recipe we were thrilled to come up with something not only ORIGINAL and KID-FRIENDLY, but something SUPER DELICIOUS!

What's great about goodies on a stick is it really minimizes the mess, which is always a BONUS!

Speaking of bonuses, check out the INSIDE of our treat! They are stuffed with white chocolate peanut butter cups. They are beyond delicious.

Here's how you can make these UNIQUE and DELICIOUS pops...

Rice Krispies Stuffed Peanut Butter Pops

yields: approximately 24 pops

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 7 cups Kelloggs Rice Krispies
• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1 cup peanut butter
• White chocolate peanut butter cups
• White Chocolate Almond Bark
• Long Lollipop Sticks

DIRECTIONS:

1. Pour Kelloggs Rice Krispies into a large bowl.
2. Bring peanut butter, sugar and corn syrup to a boil on medium heat.
3. Pour mixture over Rice Krispies and stir making sure all cereal is lightly coated.
4. Let cool for 10-15 minutes.
5. Let your kids grab a handful of Rice Krispies mixture and add Peanut Butter cup to the center and roll into a ball.
6. Insert stick to the center of the ball and press around. Do the same for all pops.
