How to Make Banana Pudding-Flavored Rice Krispie Treats

Step 1: Prep the Pan

Begin by greasing the 9 x 13 baking dish. Set aside.

Step 2: Melt the Butter

Melt unsalted butter in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 3: Create The Marshmallow Mixture

Once the butter melted, add in the marshmallows and pudding mix. Stir continuously until all the ingredients come together and are well-combined.

Step 4: Add The Cereal

Next, add the rice cereal and crushed wafers. Stir until well-combined.

Step 5: Set The Rice Krispie Treat Mixture Into The Pan

Pour the Rice Krispie mixture into the greased pan and press down evenly. Set aside.

Step 6: Melt The Candy Wafers

Place candy wafers into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in thirty second intervals, mixing between each interval. After 2 to 3 intervals, the wafers should be melted.

Step 7: Add Melted Candy Embellishments on the Rice Cereal Treats

Place the melted candy into a piping bag.

Drizzle the flavored Rice Krispie treats with the melted candy and place additional wafers down immediately.

Step 8: Set and Serve

Allow to set for 30 to 45 minutes. Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy.
