Ingredients

• Football Jersey Cookie Cutter
• Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Cereal
• Butter (We use Salted, Sweet Cream Butter)
• Mini Marshmallows
• Wilton Color Right Food Coloring System – Yellow
• Wilton Color Right Food Coloring System – Blue
• Wilton Color Right Food Coloring System – Orange
• Royal Icing

Preparation

Step 1

We used Royal Icing to decorate the Philadelphia Eagles 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 white and black 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 3 tablespoons of butter, 3 cups of marshmallows and 3 cups of Rice Krispie Treats for this sized batch of Rice Krispie Treats mixture. If you are going to make more than 3 Philadelphia Eagles Rice Krispie Treats you will need an additional 1 cup of mixture for every extra team jersey Rice Krispie Treat. 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 the right shade of Green from the Philadelphia Eagles Jersey’s we added the following combination of food coloring to the marshmallow mixture:

Wilton Color Right Food Coloring – 8 drops of Yellow
Wilton Color Right Food Coloring – 6 drops of Blue
Wilton Color Right Food Coloring – 2 drops of Orange

Finally, add the Rice Krispie Cereal and fold it together until the cereal is completely covered with the green marshmallow mixture.

Let the green 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 completely.

Use the white and black Royal Icing to mimic the Philadelphia Eagles Football Jersey. We added team numbers of our favorite players and the iconic black trim around the neck of the jersey.
