Circus Cookie Krispie Treats

Actually this recipe was sent to me from an awesome reader named Nicole. I love it when you guys send me ideas…because sometimes my brain gets fried. Coming up with new sweet treat ideas occasionally overloads my brain!

And since we’re all sugar friends here, we’re all working for the same goal. These treats were just too easy to pass up, and absolutely adorable too!

Grab some of those Frosted Animal cookies…you know, the ones that are impossible to stop eating…

And chop them up.

Then make your usual krispie treats, going a little heavier on the marshmallow.

Mix in the cookies…

And stir it all together.

The frosting might melt off the cookies a bit, turning your krispies pink.  This is completely ok.
