      These are so cute. I want to make them the day before the party. Would you recommend refrigeration or just leave them out on the counter? I will use home made buttercream frosting.

        Thanks! You can leave homemade buttercream at room temperature for up to a few days and Rice Krispie Treats get dried out and stale-tasting when refrigerated so it's best to just keep them on the counter. Have fun!
