Walt Disney World with Mom Select sent me a box of goodies to host a fun filled #DisneyKids Preschool Party. These treats were just one of the copycat recipes found on our tour of the parks and a few fun Disney Parks activities.
On my trip back in October to experience the Diamond Celebration at the Disneyland Park I had my first taste of a Mickey Rice Krispy Treat, yum. A delicious crispy treat, ears dipped ever so lightly in chocolate. It has quickly made its way to the top of our family’s favorite park treat. And now you can bring the taste of the parks home with this super simple Copycat Mickey Rice Krispy Treats recipe.
Begin by melting the butter and marshmallows in a large microwaveable bowl. Add crisp cereal to the mixture, stir.
Cut out Mickey shapes with a cookie cutter.

Wow, great job! I love getting these at the parks. I’d be terrible at the dipping part though.
