The subtle green color makes it a perfect dessert for St. Patrick’s Day or paired with cherry for Christmas, and the lime flavor adds a nice citrus freshness. This simple treat is just as easy as original Rice Krispies Treats®, but with a fun little twist. It could make the perfect addition to your next bake sale or gathering.
