These flower shaped Rice Krispies treats make a fun dessert or snack to make for spring birthdays, Easter or Mother's Day. You will need flower cookie cutters (compare prices) to make these rice crispy treats. Kids can help with this recipe, but it's probably best to have an adult work with the marshmallow mixture right off the stove. Let the kids do the decorating after the treats cool a bit.
