Admittedly, I’m a rice krispie treat addict. I’ll take a fresh batch of homemade (yes, homemade is a must) rice krispie treats over a lot of other desserts 9 times out of 10. In my books, there’s no wrong time or place for these sweet, buttery, crunchy squares and there’s also no wrong season. Here we’ve proved that there is indeed a rice krispie treat for every month of the year. Now you’ll never have to be without krispie treats again! (you’re welcome)
After New Years Eve, things start to go downhill a bit, the Christmas cheer is gone and while a bright shiny new year is ahead of you, there’s also the realization that Winter is far from over. Cue the comfort food, and what’s more comforting than a batch of rice krispie treats made with creamy, chocolaty Nutella?

If you want to know the best cupcake shop in any major city in America, just ask Angela. This girl knows her sweets, and she isn't shy about letting you know that your german chocolate cake needs more chocolate. If you want to find Angela on any given day, she's probably looking up reviews to decide where to grab lunch, or in her downtime, binge-watching the latest 'it-series' on Netflix.
