Dallas Cowboys Rice Krispie Treats are a perfect treat for a game day football party, a Super Bowl party or a special dessert for a Cowboys fan.
We used Royal Icing to decorate the Dallas Cowboys Rice Krispie Treats. Our recipe is very simple – mix 1 box of powdered sugar with 5 tablespoons of meringue powder and slowly add up to 1/2 cup of water until the Royal Icing is the right consistency. To color the Royal Icing, you will need grey food coloring. This recipe makes quite a bit of Royal Icing so you might want to adjust the measurements depending on how many team jerseys you will be making
Now you need to make up a batch of Rice Krispie Treats. Our cookie cutter is pretty big so we only made three team jerseys from this size batch. We used 4 tablespoons of butter, 2 cups of marshmallows and 2 cups of Rice Krispie Treats for this sized batch of Rice Krispie Treats mixture. Melt the butter in a pan. Add the mini marshmallows and stir on medium low heat until they are completely melted
After the marshmallows have melted but before you add the Rice Krispie Cereal, add your food coloring. To make this navy blue color we added used the following combination of food coloring in the marshmallow mixture:
- 8 drops of Blue Wilton Color Right Food Coloring
- 2 drops of Red Wilton Color Right Food Coloring
Finally, add the Rice Krispie Cereal under it is completely covered with the blue marshmallow mixture.
Let the navy Rice Krispie Treat mixture cool for a few minutes. It needs to be cool enough to touch but still malleable. Spoon the mixture into the cookie cutter and mold it to fit the football jersey cookie cutter. Remove from the cookie cutter and let it cool completelyl
Use the white and grey Royal Icing to mimic the Dallas Cowboys Football Jersey. We added a #1 to the front and the iconic white and grey stripes on the sleeves.
Pretty close if we don’t say so ourselves! Our Dallas Cowboys Rice Krispie Treats are ready for game day!
