Simple and delicious, these Almond Joy Rice Krispie Treats are amazing! Made with almonds, coconut and chocolate, these are one of my new favorite treats!

Rice Krispie Treat Heaven

I’ve always been a Rice Krispie treat junky. I love trying to come up with new flavors and I have yet to be disappointed. A little while ago I stumbled upon coconut flavored marshmallows and immediately thought about how I could use them with Rice Krispies.

I then remembered my other favorite candy love, Almond Joys, and came up a recipe idea. How perfect would they be to use them to make Almond Joy Rice Krispie treats! Now I can enjoy two of my favorite treats at the same time. And they really are a perfect candy marriage that my whole family just LOVED !

How To Make Them

Rice Krispie Treats – You’ll start this recipe the same way you do other Rice Krispie treats. Melt the coconut marshmallows and butter in the microwave. Start with a minute and then do additional 30 second bursts until it’s fully melted.

Combine – Before you pour the melted marshmallows on top of the Rice Krispies, add in the almond extract. Then pour it over the cereal and stir everything until it has fully combined.
