This week is my daughter's 5th Birthday! I can hardly believe it.... In celebration, I decided to combine a couple of ideas I found on Pinterest to create her own special treats to share at school: Trix Pop Treats! Think Rice Crispy treat, meets Trix, meets Cake Pops :)
What I LOVE most about these cute confections, is that they are EASY, portable and virtually mess-free while at the same time being unique, bright, fun and sweet! Here's how to make them:
SUPPLIES:
(makes aprox. 40 golf ball sized pops)
Wilton Lollipop/Cale Pop Stciks (I bought mine at Joann's)
Wilton Clear Treat Bags and Twist Ties (also bought at Joann's)
1 Box of Trix
Marshmallows
Butter
Cooking Spray
INSTRUCTIONS:
Make the Trix Treats the same as you would Rice Crispy Treats....I made mine more 'marshmallowy' than normal to ensure that they would form a tight ball and keep the lollipop stick firmly in place. Once you have the trix and marshmallows mixed in your large bowl. Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes...Spray your hands with cooking spray or butter and begin forming the trix mixture into balls -- like popcorn balls...poke a lollipop stick through the ball, place in the clear treat bag and twist tie closed! It's that simple...
