White Chocolate Covered Rice Krispy Treats

In my hometown {or rather, the town just next to it, but it’s pretty much the same thing} there’s the cutest candy shop you ever did see. My mom used to bring home treats from there every so often. My favorites were the chocolate caramel pretzels, but white chocolate covered rice krispy treats were a definite close second.

I can remember trying to make them with my roommates in college and it ended up to be a messy disaster, but they still tasted good! Luckily, these ones turned out a little prettier. 😉
