Unwrap all the Rice Krispies Treats and lay them out on a baking pan lined with parchment paper. If you want to make large LEGO bricks, just leave them as they are.
02 -
For square LEGO bricks, cut about one-third off each treat. You can use that smaller piece to make the tiniest LEGO bricks. This gives you different sizes to work with.
03 -
Work with one color at a time so the chocolate doesn't harden on you. Put about half a cup of candy melt wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat them in 30-second bursts, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
04 -
If the melted chocolate seems too thick to spread easily, stir in a tiny bit of vegetable oil. This helps make it smoother and easier to work with.
05 -
Spoon the melted chocolate over the top of each treat, spreading it evenly with a knife or the back of a spoon. Make sure the top is completely covered.
06 -
While the chocolate is still wet, press matching colored M&M's onto the top to look like LEGO studs. Arrange them however you like - 2 studs, 4 studs, 6 studs, just like real LEGO bricks.
07 -
Let the treats sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens completely. You can also pop them in the fridge for about 15 minutes to speed things up.
