INSTRUCTIONS
Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Melt the candy melts in the microwave in separate glass dishes with 1 tsp of coconut oil in 30-second increments at 50% heat level. (you do not want to burn the candy melts or they will seize up). Stir in between every 30 seconds. Stir well. I find that the candy melts don’t actually begin to look “melted” until I begin to stir them — keep stirring too as the melts are hot from the microwave and will continue to blend.
Take a slice or square of the krispie treat and dip an end into the colored melted candy melts of your choice, place the krispie treat on the parchment paper and then sprinkle with small hearts/jimmies/sprinkles (or you can simply dip or tap the chocolate covered krispie treat in the sprinkles too — there is no right or wrong way to do this!!).
Alternatively, prior to the sprinkles, you can take a small spoon and dip in an opposite color of melted candy melts and drizzle across the krispie treat to make lines across the krispie treat(s) and then sprinkle with small hearts/jimmies/sprinkles.
Leave out on the counter or place in the refrigerator to set.
