Disney Cars Rice Krispie Treats
(makes 6 Cars Rice Krispie Treats; 2 of each character)
Ingredients
- 1 pkg. 8 count Rice Krispie Treats
- 1 pkg. mini Oreos
- Wilton chocolate candy melts (yellow, brown, & red)
- 1 pkg. M&M’s
- 1 pkg. gum (white small rectangles)
- 4 Airheads candy (white mystery flavor individual size)
Directions
Place 6 whole Rice Krispie Treats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a non-stick silicon baking mat.
Cut another Rice Krispie Treat in half and place these pieces on the baking sheet. Cut two more Rice Krispie Treats into thirds and place those pieces on the baking sheet as well.
In 3 separate microwave-safe bowls, melt each color of chocolate. Heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between times, until completely melted.
Dip 2 whole Rice Krispie Treats into the milk chocolate until fully coated. Place back on the baking sheet to dry. Now dip the two half-sized pieces of Rice Krispie Treats into the milk chocolate. Place one half-sized piece on top of each whole chocolate-coated Rice Krispie Treat to resemble a truck cab/windshield. This will be Mater (makes two).
Next, dip 2 whole Rice Krispie Treats into the red chocolate until fully coated. Return to baking sheet. Now dip four 1/3 sized pieces of Rice Krispie Treats into the red chocolate. Place two of these 1/3 sized pieces on top of each whole red-coated treat to form the cars. These will be Lightening McQueen.
Repeat this process with the yellow chocolate to make Luigi. You should now have two of each Cars character.
Using the Airheads candy, cut windshields to fit onto the cars. I made mine rectangle with little cut outs at the top to resemble the Cars characters. Press these on each car.
Cut a mouth out of the Airheads candy for the red and yellow car. Press this on the bottom piece of the car where the bumper would be.
Pull apart the Oreo cookies, scraping out the filling. Press 4 cookies on each “car” to make the wheels.
Use green, blue, and brown M&M’s for the eyes. Put a dab of melted chocolate on the backs and press on the windshields.
On the brown truck, put a line of chocolate on the bottom piece and place 2 gum teeth where the bumper would be.
You can also pipe a line of chocolate on the yellow cars to create a “mustache” and use an marker to put black dots on the eyes.
