Dark Chocolate Sprinkled Rice Krispie Pops

 

These are so easy and yummy that I will be making them again and again!  Rice Krispie treats are something most of us don't outgrow.  Add rich dark chocolate, sprinkles and a stick to keep your hands clean and you have the perfect treat.  These are also great for the little helpers in your life.  My 2 year old was able to dip in the chocolate and sprinkles herself.  She did try to eat them as she made them though ;-)  You could easily change this up by dipping in nuts, seasonal sprinkles, changing the color of the chocolate, making the treats different sizes, chocolate then mini marshmallows than carmel then chocolate again...I could go on forever.  Now I want one, and of course they'be been eaten up!
