    Add Easter Rice Krispie Treats to your baskets this year. Your kids will love finding these adorably cute Fuzzy Chick Pops nestled among their jelly beans and chocolate bunnies.

    Add Easter Rice Krispie Treats to your baskets this year. Your kids will love finding these adorably cute Fuzzy Chick Pops nestled among their jelly beans and chocolate bunnies.

     It's hard for me to decide which is cuter, a bunny, a lamb, or a chick. Do you have a favorite?

    All I know is that I love making treats at Easter because everything is so cheerful.

    I can't help but feel all warm and fuzzy inside when I see these Rice Krispies Treat Chick Pops. They may not be quite as adorable as a tiny little fluffy baby chick but are pretty sweet looking, nonetheless.

    Add Easter Rice Krispie Treats to your baskets this year. Your kids will love finding these adorably cute Fuzzy Chick Pops nestled among their jelly beans and chocolate bunnies.

    Each of these candy coated rice krispie treats is covered in colored coconut then decorated with some candy eyes and orange candy coating. I am aware of the great number of coconut haters out there, and I have you covered.

    Pink Fuzzy Slipper Cookies

    You can grate yellow Candy Melts, using a cheese grater, to make flakes of yellow candy that can be used in place of the coconut like I did to make my Pink Fuzzy Slipper Cookies. If you want more detailed step-by-step instructions, be sure to check out my Pink Fuzzy Slipper Cookies tutorial.

    Add a touch of whimsy to your Easter baskets this year. Make Fuzzy Chick Rice Krispie Treats.

    Easter Rice Krispie Treats Fuzzy Chick Pops

    You'll Need:

    sweetened flaked coconut
    yellow liquid food coloring
    Rice Krispies Treats
    melted, yellow Candy Melts (or color white candy coating with yellow candy coloring)*
    2 candy eyes per chick
    melted, orange Candy Melts*

    *For detailed melting instructions, see my Chocolate Making Tips page.

    You'll need about 1 ounce of yellow candy melts (plus more for dipping,) ½ ounce coconut, and 3 orange candy melts per .78 ounce rice krispies treat to make your chicks.

    Supplies:

    lollipop sticks
    paper straws
    parchment paper lined baking sheets

    Instructions:

    If you are looking to use homemade Rice Krispie Treats,  head on over to my new website, HowToMakeRiceKrispies.com. You can also check out how we taste tested 20 versions of the Rice Krispie Treat recipe to come up with the absolute BEST Rice Krispie Treat Recipe. All you have to do is follow the recipe provided in the link, cut the treats in rectangles, and then follow the instructions provided below:

    Make yellow coconut - pour coconut into a zip top bag, break up any big lumps, add a few squirts of yellow food coloring, zip up bag, shake until evenly coated, pour into a shallow dish.

    How to coat rice krispie treat in candy melts

     Dip the tip of a lollipop stick in some of the melted yellow candy coating. If using straws, slide the straw over the stick, pressing it up into the candy coating. This will help the two stick together. Then insert the candy coated tip of the stick into a Rice Krispies Treat.

    dip rice krispie treats in candy melts

    Dip the cereal treat bars into the yellow candy coating. Lift the treat allowing the excess candy coating to drip off.

    rice krispie treat lolipops

    Coat treats with yellow coconut. Set on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze for 5 minutes.

    Easter candy recipe

    Pour orange candy melts into a squeeze-it mold painter bottle, or in a small zip top bag with a tiny bit of the tip cut off. Pipe a beak and feet onto each chick. Pipe a dot onto the back of two candy eyes and add them above the beak.
