Today we’re doing easy. And festive. And fun. Got kids? This is the treat you want to make together with them because they CANNOT MESS IT UP. Seriously. If my boys couldn’t mess it up, yours will be fine too!
I wish I had some process shots but my hands were covered in blue rice krispies treats and my camera seemed so far away…on the other side of the counter.
It’s a lazy day, what can I say.

5 SECRETS TO GETTING DINNER ON THE TABLE...FAST!
The boys and are I stuck indoors today since it’s hitting 107 today. 1-0-7. I die. I needed some boredom buster activities that a) didn’t heat up the house and b) could double as a blog post.
These sweet treats won out.
I’ve made sugar cookie bark before (DELISH!) but I was out of sugar cookie dough and it would have violated rule A above anyways. I was trying to think of another “base” to the bark, cause I happen to like more texture in my bark, and it occurred to me that rice krispies treats would be kind of awesome. Reece and Bryce approved.
This bark takes just minutes, MINUTES to make. Easy and fabulous!
