Ingredients You’ll Need For This Recipe:

Prep time: 10 minutes
Bake time: N/A
Servings: 18-20

Ingredients:

• 20 premade Rice Krispy Treats
• ¼ c black candy melts

Step-by-step Guide:

1 – Unwrap each of the Rice Krispy treats.

2 – Flatten and reshape each Rice Krispy to be more rectangular, using a bench scraper or similar to keep the edges sharp and straight.

3 – Melt the black candy melts.

4 – Transfer to a piping bag.

5 – Cut a small hole in the tip of the bag.

6 – Pipe ruler tick marks along one long end of the rulers, making some longer and some shorter like you’d find on a traditional ruler.

7 – Allow to set until the candy melts harden, about 10 minutes.

8 – Serve with a glass of milk and enjoy!

Pro Tips for Success:

• Chill treats first: Pop your Rice Krispies in the fridge for 10 minutes to make shaping easier and less sticky.

• Use a ruler as a guide: Place a real ruler next to your treat while piping for more realistic tick marks.

• Try different colors: Make “fun rulers” using colored candy melts for a playful twist.

• Add names for personalization: Pipe a child’s name or grade on the back for party favors or place settings.

• Use kitchen tweezers: Helps fix any crooked lines or small mistakes while the candy is still soft.

• Let kids help: Little ones can help flatten and shape the treats—it’s a fun family activity.

• Make ahead: These store well in an airtight container for 2–3 days, making prep a breeze.
