Description

Ingredients

• ¼ cup butter + more for greasing
• 6 cups marshmallows
• 1 tbsp. cocoa powder
• 5½ cups chocolate Rice Krispies
• white cookie icing
• M&Ms or other candy for buttons
• paper straw {if desired} or popsicle sticks

Directions

• Over low heat melt the butter. Add in the marshmallows and stir to melt. Combine with cocoa powder and remove from heat.
• Stir in the Rice Krispies until combined.
• Grease the inside of a gingerbread man cookie cutter {as well as your hands!} and place on waxed paper or parchment paper. Press the Rice Krispie mixture firmly into the mold. If you are making pops, you will need to make the gingerbread men a little thicker {about 1 inch} to hold the stick in place. If you are just making the gingerbread men with no stick, they do not need to be as thick.
• Remove the Rice Krispie treat from the cookie cutter and place on waxed paper or parchment paper. Twist the stick in at the bottom. Keep firm pressure on the gingerbread man so he stays together. You may need to just re-form the shape a bit once the stick has been inserted. Press firmly together.
• Decorate with cookie icing and candy as desired.
