Whenever my husband is away on a business trip, my 20-something-year-old daughter and I lock eyes and silently scream, “Girls Night In with Krispies Kreations!” Â This usually means a night of relaxation with a movie, as in, we get to choose the snacks, the movie AND have complete control over the remote. Â I always miss the hubs, but I do love Girls Night In. Â It’s all about us!
Girls Night In With Krispies Kreations
My daughter is usually given the task of picking the movie and I’m in charge of choosing the perfect snack. Â Girls Night In always requires something out of the ordinary when it comes to munching. So IÂ head straight to the cereal aisle of my local Walmart store. (There’s where my favorite snack is located).
We’re usually tired from working all day and need a quick pick-me-up snack to go with our movie, so I grab a box (or 2 – I’ll never tell) of Rice Krispies Treats, dark & white chocolate, chopped pistachios, peanut butter M&M’s and some coconut and head home to work my magic.
Black and White Rice Krispies Treats
In my mind I envision my own interpretation of a black and white cookie, using Rice Krispies Treats as the base of the cookie – they are so light, airy and marshmallowy- and coating half with a rich, creamy  dark chocolate and spreading the other half with beautiful, delicious white chocolate so that it resembles a black and white cookie. Don’t stop there. Go for pure decadence by adding toasted coconut, peanut butter M&Ms and pistachios. I think I’ve invented the best snack ever!
I created a short video to show you how quick and easy it is to play dress-up with Rice Krispies Treats! Â Make sure you watch it at the end of this post.

Do you ever have girls night in? How do you dress up your Rice Krispies Treats?

Those sound amazing, but I only make homemade rice krispie treats, so I think that is the way I would go. My kids would have fun decorating them 🙂
My son-in-law loves rice krispie treats. I like to dress them up and make them fun for adults. 🙂
Oh, yum! What a fun thing to make – I can see myself bringing these to my next book club. Would love to experiment with the toppings!
I also thought about transforming them into faux petit fours and covering them with chocolate ganache and let harden. 🙂
I’m not of a rice krispies person, but I think my little cousins will like this one. I’ll have fun though helping decor ate the rice krispies. I like the idea of Girls Night … mother-daughter moments are always the best and to be able to do something not-so-usual makes Girls Night sweeter.
We decided to dress up those rice krispies and make them more adult friendly. 🙂
I have had a girls night in, but it was a craft night. They would have loved for me to make the rice krispy treats you made.
A craft night sounds like so much fun! I need to do that . . . and blog about it, of course. 🙂
First, you guys look gorgeous! Second, I’m literally eating these with my eyes! They look so delish!
Thanks, Madaline! Rice Krispies aren’t just for kids anymore. 🙂
Those are some fancy Rice Krispy Treats! We don’t make them often, but when they do, they don’t last long enough to cool, or to be decorated. usually they are eaten warm, gooey, and straight out of the pan (or mixing bowl, let’s be honest).
First of all, your daughter is beautiful! We just made some rice krispie treats on Saturday with the kids and they’ve been sitting on the counter. Thank you for helping me find their fate- definitely getting some black & white goodness on those babies asap. I absolutely love all your creative ideas!
Thanks, Ashley, for your kind words. I always enjoy reading all of your posts. I learned a lot about natural germicides today AND that I’ve been using the wrong one.
I love girls night in as a matter of fact I am going to one to meet some of my bloggy buddies next month and I can’t wait. I had no idea you can do so many things with rice krispy treats
Sounds like so much fun meeting up with your bloggy buddies! I do hope you share it all on your fab blog!
Mother Daughter days are the best! Sprinkle some sugary treats ion top and you are in for some laughs for sure! I’m a sucker for rainbow sprinkles so I would have to top mine with them. Cheers Alli!
Yes, they are the best! Really enjoyed your radio show today!
Those look so delicious. I would have never thought to dress up rice krispy treats but I’m going to do that on our next girls night. The kids will think it’s fun and I’m sure they will taste amazing.
Since coming up with the faux black and white cookie, I’ve thought of several more ways to dress those babies up. 🙂
Yum these all look so good! Love putting a twist on already delicious treats to make them more delicious!
These look amazing! I always enjoy rice krispie treats, but dressing them up is an even better treat!
Thanks, Paris! I had a lot of fun dressing them up.
Girls night is always a fun time! Those Rice Krispie Kreations look scrumptious!! I don’t know how long it has been since I had Rice Krispie treats but the convenience of the boxed version sounds enticing!
You and your daughter are both beautiful with the same pretty smile!
You’re too sweet, Shirley! It was fun to dress up those treats for the adults!
I think this looks good enough for a GIRL’S night in – meaning just me! I don’t want to share! >:D
I don’t like to share, either. That’s why I bought extras. You can come on over – I’ll save you a few. 🙂
This looks like a lot of fun with great end results of getting to eat them afterwards. You have inspired me and I think this would be a fun project for my grand daughter and I to do together and make up our own toppings to keep our creative juices flowing. Thanks for the recipe and the inspiration.
There are some many topping ideas that keep popping in my mind. I like that it doesn’t take a lot of work to have a delicious treat.
My daughters and I have a girls day out over the weekend. Those rice krispies treats looks yummy! I usually eat mine plan.
Oops *plain! Typing fast.
This was the first time I had actually dressed mine up! It was fun to play with my food. 🙂
As if Rice Krispies treats weren’t heavenly enough on their own! This looks beyond what the word delicious can even begin to describe. These will be an instant hit for my next girls night in!
These look so delicious! I love that you added pistachios! They are my fave!
Mine, too, Logan!
I saw this and new I had to read more! You always have such fun and delicious recipes and party idea Alli! Plus I can’t resist anything with chocolate and peanut butter! Can’t wait to make these with my kids.
Chocolate and peanut butter are 2 of my favorite flavors. They were meant for each other.
What a fabulous idea! I love rice krispy treats and this is a fun way to make them even more yummy
Oh wow, these look so delicious! They’re filled with everything I love and the M&Ms on top just made them perfect. I HAVE to make these 🙂
M&M’s are such a weakness of mine, too.
That is a surefire way to give rice krispy treats more flavor. I’ll definitely have to try this sometime!
Yes, definitely more flavor!
Those all look so wonderful. This is such a fun idea. I enjoy doing a S’mores bar where the kids can make their own when we do outdoor bon fires and such, this would be great to give a try when it is rainy outside! I love it. Thank you for sharing.
Ahh, S’mores! Love those things. I wonder if I could create a S’mores like bar with the rice krispies. 🙂
UGH, these look amazing!!! And they are definitely NOT on my diet LOL I LOVE the pic of you and your daughter!
Thanks. My daughter takes the best selfies. She knows how to hold the camera at the right angle. When I take one I look completely washed out and old. 🙂
What a great picture of you! And your krispies creation looks amazing, too.
Thanks, Anna! I really enjoyed your blog post today.
This looks so delicious! Even though I have boys I love spending a night in with them and watching a fun flick.
I have all grandsons, no granddaughter in sight . . .yet and we love to have sleepovers, too.
Those look so delicious…and so colourful!! I make similar type bars with puffed rice and my kids love them!
I bet they are delicious.
Oh yum! I haven’t had any rice crispy treats in years! I really have to make this recipe. Looks delicious!
Thanks, Bonnie!
Ah Alli, you always have such great ideas…I love that you included pistachios in these…When hubby is away for business, the kids and I usually have sleepovers. They love it because they get to sleep in mama’s room or mamma in their room. You and your daughter look lovely!!
Thanks, Zan! I should have added the part that she sleeps with me when my hubs is out of town. She may be in her 20’s, but she’s still the baby. 🙂
These looks so yummy and fun to make! What a great way to make a kid food more grown up!
Exactly! It takes rice krispies treats to a whole new level.
No girls night here… it’s a house of boys. But when I get together with my mother, its pizza and a movie. Your yummy krispies are not just good, they are a memory creator. One that your daughter with always remember. 🙂
Yes, we love our girls night in!
I’m not really a fan of rice krispie treats. I love the way you decorated them though and the topping you chose. I might have to give them another try.
Try adding your favorite topping and you might just be surprised. I saw some today that someone had made into an ice cream sandwich. 🙂
Omgoodness that looks like heaven on a plate! So many great flavors, textures and colors! I can’t wait until my daughter is older and we can have beautiful moments as adults together : )
Yum! I love rice treats like these. They bring back so many memories. I love that coconut!
It looks easy to make! This is a wonderful treat for my nieces this weekend!
These look so good. My kids would love to snack on these. Peanut butter M&M’s are my favorite M&M’s. I will have to make this recipe this weekend.
I have always loved Rice Krispies Treats just as they are, but I never thought about adding anything to the top of them. It’s almost like having a brownie bar but with Rice Krispies Treats instead! Great idea!
Sweet treat for the beautiful ladies. I think my son would enjoy this so much. Thanks for the great idea.
OMG I havent had rice krispie treats in forever! Looks soooo good!
You did a fantastic job decorating these Rice Krispy treats! They look awesome! We try to make our own in our family because it’s a simple recipe that my kid can do. Perhaps we will embellish ours the next time we try it 🙂
You did a wonderful job! Tons of goodies on top of that Rice Krispies square. My kids would love these.
omg what a great and yummy idea!!!! These sound so good. Love that y’all had a girls night in! Too fun :):)
What a tasty treat for a girls night in. Those do look mighty good and sounds like it was fun.
Alli! You’re spoiling us! All of my favorites and you make it so easy looking and fun to look at before chomping down 🙂
I think Rice Krispies treats is one of my all time favs… what a great idea to make them even better!
I’ve always loved Rice Krispie Treats, they taste soooo good. In all this time, I’ve never ‘dressed’ mine up – not even dipped in chocolate…well – choc fondue doesn’t really count.
It’s been so long since I’ve made rice krispies treats!! these look absolutely amazing! need to try them out!
Where have I been? I had no idea you could buy pre-made Rice Krispie Treats! That is so much easier and this recipe looks great.
Oh my! I’ve always loved Rice Krispy Treats so this new twist is definitely going to have to happen really soon!
What a fun rice krispie treats. This looks like fine. Create your own treat. It would be fun to have a toppings bar.
We use rice krispies a lot for cakes also. They are great for sculpting big figures and shapes out of.
These would be great for snack parties too – love it, and so yummy too!
How much do I love Rice Krispie treats?? These look yummy. I’m a fan of coconut so I’ll have t o try this.
I have to admit this sounds like such an amazing time indeed. The remote is a big deal sometimes. lol I love Rice Krispies Treats and I will have to make them this way because it sounds and looks so good. Thanks for sharing.
I love rice krispies and I don’t know that ours would last long enough to decorate…lol. I can’t wait till my girls are out of their teen years so we can have more girls’ nights since hanging with mom isn’t the coolest thing right now.
This is a great idea! Those look so good! I never thought of topping them like that. I make a peanut butter Cheerios treat for my sons and I bet they’d be amazing topped with chocolate and candy and things too.
Looks like you two beautiful girls had a fun evening.
Girls night in – what a sweet and awesome idea for a mom-daughter bonding time. 🙂 Those treats look really delish. We love rice krispies!
Oh my I think I gained 10 lbs just reading this post. This treats look soo yummy can’t wait to treat myself and make them for my family.
That is a yummy delicious creation. I’m sure my kids would go bananas over it here too.
These look soo yummy! What an awesome treat! I could use a girls night in. Thanks for sharing.
I love these Krispy Kreme Kreations! It takes the treat to the next level!
What a creative way to really enhance the already tasty Rice Krispies Treats! #client
