Cherry Krispie Treats with Dark Chocolate
You all should know by now my crazy obsession with Rice Krispie Treats. I don’t make them very often (even though I’ve perfected how to make Rice Krispie Treats) because I can’t control myself around them.
It’s a joke in our house, because my husband knows if I’ve made them there will be very few left. If any. It’s that serious.
But, it’s been a few months since I brought out a Krispie treat recipe (remember these Avalanche treats, these Biscoff treats , and of course these Kitchen Sink treats).
Today, you can indulge on cherry flavored treats with a dark chocolate frosting. Well, only if you make them yourself, because mine are gone.

I am completely with you on the krispie addiction…what is it about these marshmallow treats that makes them so delicious??? They never last the day in our house:-) I am loving the bright pink ones that you created!!!
Very unique flavoring here and perfect for Valentines. I never would have thought to use flavored gelatin mix, you are a creative one. Keeping this recipe so I can enjoy some of these tasty treats at my house-yum!
Love that they’re bright pink; that always makes it more fun to eat. Though, uh, I definitely have no problems eating a pan of “regular” krispies, either. My thighs can tell you that much.
And they’re made of cereal so you can eat them for breakfast!! Love this version!
These look amazing and just in time for Valentine’s Day!
these would be perfect for valentines day! Such a great switch up to a old favorite!
I love RKTReats and anything that’s pink and chocolate gets extra bonus points 🙂
Yum! I love rice krispie treats and I’ve colored them, but never thought to flavor them! They look so pretty too!
I just wanted to let you know that I host a Friday Weekly Link Party and would love it if you joined!

How creative. They look delicious. Come visit. We have some great recipes this week.
Why do you have an “h” in sugary?
It’s a play on my last name…Shugarman 🙂
What if you added maraschino cherries?
Delicious!! And I DID add maraschino cherries… YUM!!!
Awesome, love the addition you made!
Have you tried other gelatin flavors?
I added almond extract for a cherry almond flavor!! Great treat!
Is the gelatinpowder the same as jello ?. Sorry to ask but i have not seen any flavored gelatin powder:( , anyways the recepie sounds delicious 🙂
Yep, it’s the same as JELL-O gelatin

What a wonderful idea! I am attending a baby shower and plan to take these as well as a batch made with blue raspberry Jell-o !
Fun!!
What size baking sheet did you use?
These look yummy!!! Love the Cherry idea!
Could you use pudding instead?
Sure!
Hi Aimee, I realize this recipe post is about 5 years old or so now so I am hoping this question will make it’s way to you: based on this exact recipe, how many rice cereal bars/squares should be yielded? A dozen? And is this based on a 9″×13″×2″ rectangular (glass) baking dish? I am going to try my hand at this tomorrow for my daughter’s LAST EVER High School Choir concert as she is graduating in OMG less than a month now and then going away to college!!!! Soooo, this really caught my eye bc the colour just POPS but the flavor mixture sounds out of this world and is actually one of my daughter’s favorites. I will be trying these and also either the peanut butter balls OR the cereal treats on the popsicle sticks, I think that is a right clever idea!
Thanks! xx

It is a 13×9, so you can make them whichever size you prefer 🙂 Congrats to your daughter!! My oldest daughter graduates high school this Saturday 🙁
Made these last week for a bday cake for a friends grandson. His theme was soccer so i made a sheet cake and then used this recipe to shape a half circle and put it on top of the green field grass fristing i used for the cake. Then, i frosted i hexagons with melted dark chocolate and white chocolate on tbe rice krispie soccer ball. The cherry and chocolate worked great on the chocolate cake
Thanks for the great idea

They are very good. I will put the first ingredients in the microwave instead of the stove.
