6 cups rice krispies cereal
3 tbsp butter
4 cups mini marshmallows
About 30 pretzels

How to make your reindeer treats

First spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray. Then in a large pot, melt your butter over medium heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until melted.

Remove from heat and pour in the cereal, mix well and then pour the rice krispie mixture into your pan.

Using parchment paper (greaseproof baking paper), push the mixture into pan making sure that it’s even.

Let it cool down and then cut it into 15 squares. Add 2 pretzels to each of your reindeer rice krispie treats for antlers, a red M&M or smartie for the nose and two candy eyes.
