Instructions
Line a baking sheet, counter top or table with parchment paper. You will need space to do all 20 treats at the same time or you will have to do them in batches, letting each batch dry before transferring it.
Unwrap Rice Krispies Treats. Skewer each treat with a cake pop stick. Press the stick in at the short end of the Rice Krispies Treat and push it in until it is about halfway in the treat.
Pour each color of sprinkles into separate bowls and set them next to the area you lined with parchment paper.
Transfer each color of candy melting wafers into separate microwave-safe bowls. Work with one color at a time to prevent the chocolate/melting wafers from drying before you have time to coat all the treats. Place the bowl in the microwave and microwave on high for 30 seconds, remove and stir. Microwave for 15-second increments, removing each time to stir before heating for another 15 seconds. Repeat until all the wafers are completely melted.
Once you have one color of wafers/chocolate fully melted, start dipping half of the treats in chocolate coating about 2/3 of the treat. Hold the treat upside down by the stick and let most of the excess chocolate drip off (about 5 seconds). When you get low on chocolate you can use a spoon to help cover the treats.
After dipping in the chocolate, dip the tops of treats into the same color of sprinkles. Then lay the treat down on the parchment paper.
Before the chocolate is dry, carefully place the eyes. You can make some monsters into cyclopes, and others can have multiple eyes.
Let the chocolate dry for about 10-15 minutes. Once fully dry, store in an airtight container or resealable zipper bag on the counter. For best quality, consume within 3-4 days.
Notes
Note: Nutritional information will depend on what chocolate melts, and Krispie treats you use.
