- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons multi-colored nonpareils
- 3 tablespoons colored sprinkles
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1–2 drops red food coloring
- 1/2 teaspoon heavy cream (optional)
Instructions
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Pulse the circus animal cookies in a food processor until they're a mix of crumbs and small pieces. Reserve 1/2 cup for topping.
- In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter and mini marshmallows while stirring constantly until smooth.
- Remove from heat, then fold in the rice krispies, cookie crumbles, and 2 tablespoons of each type of sprinkles.
- Using a greased silicone spatula, gently press the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Top with the reserved cookie pieces for extra crunch.
- In two separate bowls, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave for 30 seconds each.
- Drizzle the first bowl of plain white chocolate over the treats using a sandwich bag with the corner cut off.
- Add the red food coloring to the second bowl to create a pink chocolate, then drizzle it in the opposite direction over the treats.
- Finish by sprinkling the remaining sprinkles on top and let them cool until set.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use a combination of dark and white chocolate chips.
If desired, the heavy cream can be added to the melted chocolate for a smoother texture.
These treats can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
