For the kid in all of us, make these Valentine Rice Krispie treats with only a few simple ingredients.
What you’ll need:
- Butter
- Large Marshmallows
- Rice Krispies Cereal
- Heart shaped cookie cutter

- Lollipop sticks (Popsicle sticks will work too)
*A cheap way to get around having a heart shaped cookie cutter is to cut a heart out of paper and then use your knife to trace the heart.
