My daughter absolutely loves rice krispie treats. However, I am concerned about an ingredient that I just found. Apparently they contain high fructose corn syrup. I had never looked at the ingredients before, but now that I have, I want all mothers everywhere to be aware of this ingredient. I'm trying to see if I can get Kellogg to substitute with something healthier.

1. Ever since I was a little kid, my mom and I have made rice krispie treats using cookie cutters. I now make them every year for the annual cookie exchange I attend, and recruit the kids I know(nephews, cousins, etc) to help with the cutting out and decorating. They love it!

2. I found some icing with sparkles that worked well for decorating the star shapes. The tubes were easy enough for my kids to hold, so they were able to write their names on the stars they made.
