So, I’m not that into golf, but I am into making themed desserts that are as fun to make as they are to eat! Today I am sharing a ridiculously cute and easy-to-make Rice Krispies Golf Treats recipe. I mean, who doesn’t love Rice Krispies Treats?
Nothing could be easier than making up a batch of Rice Krispies Treats (does anyone else remember those hilarious commercials?) until Kellogg’s actually decided to make them for us and sell them in stores. (Thank you!) Now I do like to make my own sometimes, but other times I like to grab some plain, store-bought Rice Krispies Treats and use them as a blank canvas. In today’s recipe for Rice Krispies Golf Treats, that is exactly what I’ve done to keep things simple, but if you want to use your favorite Rice Krispies Treats recipe as the base, you do you.

Ingredients You’ll Need for Rice Krispies Golf Treats
These fun Rice Krispies Golf Treats require only a few ingredients!
Ingredients:
- 6 ready-made rice cereal treats

How to Make Rice Krispies Golf Treats
Step #1: In a stand mixer, combine butter, confectioners’ sugar, and milk. Mix on high until your buttercream forms stiff peaks.
TIP: You may have to add sugar to stiffen it up. In order to loosen it and make it creamier, add more milk ½ tbsp. at a time.
Step #2: With the Wilton Decorating Tip #233, frost each cereal treat with your green butter cream.
Step #3: Knead your white fondant so that it’s easy to work with. Roll out 6 small spheres about ⅓ of an inch in diameter.
Step #4: Sprinkle the Oreo crumbs so that it forms a neat, small circle on one portion of the cereal treat. Using the end of a wooden BBQ skewer, lightly poke the entire surface of each fondant sphere so that it resembles a golf ball. Place on the frosted cereal treat.
Aren’t they the cutest?!
