✅ Tips & Tricks for the Best Mini Egg Rice Krispies Treats
🔥 The Secret to Soft & Chewy Treats
- Melt the marshmallows low and slow—overheating will make the treats too hard instead of soft and chewy.
- Use fresh marshmallows! Stale ones won’t melt as smoothly and can ruin the texture.
- Don’t press too hard when spreading the mixture in the pan—this keeps them light and airy instead of dense.
🍫 Getting the Perfect Mini Egg Crunch
- Fold in the Mini Eggs at the end once the mixture has slightly cooled. If you add them too soon, they’ll melt instead of staying crunchy.
- For extra chocolatey bites, save a handful of crushed Mini Eggs and sprinkle them on top before the mixture sets.
🛠 Avoiding Sticky Hands & Utensils
- Use a silicone spatula greased with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Lightly butter your hands if pressing the mixture by hand—it makes shaping the treats easier without a sticky mess.
🥡 Storage & Freezing Tips
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days to keep them fresh.
- Want to freeze them? Wrap individual squares in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container for up to 2 months—just thaw at room temp before serving.
With these tips, your Mini Egg Rice Krispies Treats will always be chewy, crispy, and perfectly chocolatey! 🔥🍫🐣

Rice Krispies Squares with Mini Eggs
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) butter

Preparation
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat.
- Add the marshmallows and vanilla extract and cook, stirring, for 10 to 12 minutes, until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal and chopped Mini Eggs. Mix gently until everything is well coated.
- Line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper. Pour the mixture into the mold and press lightly with a silicone spatula (otherwise, it’ll stick!).
- Cool completely at room temperature (approx. 30 minutes). Once set, cut into equal squares and serve!
– The marshmallows were overheated. Always melt them over low heat, stirring constantly. If they heat too quickly, they become too firm, making the treats hard.
– The mixture was packed too tightly into the pan. Press gently with a spatula—don’t compact it too much, or you’ll lose that soft, chewy texture.
– Yes! Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days to keep them fresh.
– Want to keep them longer? You can freeze them, but it’s best to freeze them without the Mini Eggs and add them after thawing to maintain their crunch.
– Absolutely! Try these swaps for a fun twist:
✅ M&M’s (classic or peanut) for a colorful crunch.
✅ Reese’s Pieces for a peanut butter kick.
✅ Milk or white chocolate chunks for an extra gooey, melty effect.
