Not ready to give up the Easter holiday yet? These egg shaped Rice Krispy treats are a delicious and a great idea for an Easter or Spring themed dessert. The festive treat is moist, chewy and crunchy! They have a hint of vanilla which is different to the regular Rice Krispy treats, but it makes them extra special. The egg shape and added touch of white chocolate topped with sprinkles makes them perfect for Spring!
