Tomorrow begins the retreat I’ve been helping to plan (click here to see all the posts about our Cozy Mountain Lodge Retreat) and I’m working like crazy to finish some of the little details that I hope will help set the weekend apart. Of course I hope that the spiritual side of the retreat is what will stay in the ladies’ hearts and minds for years to come, but, aside from praying along that end, that part is outside my responsibility. What I signed on for is to make the weekend extra special for the ladies. That means chocolates on pillows, cute decorations, and these Mountain Rice Krispies Treats (among other things).
Do you need some decor to go with your snacks?
I have these prints available in my shop!
It all started with this Pinspiration. But as it turns out, I didn’t follow her recipe or method at all. Click over to see how she did it, hers look amazing as well! Mine were as easy as this recipe for Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats cut into triangles.
I used green and white candy melts for the dipping part. I followed the directions on the bag, I dipped the big flat part into the green and stood them to cool and dry on wax paper.
A couple hours later (because I was also helping the kids with schoolwork and making a birthday cake for my husband, not because it took that long to set) I followed the directions on the bag again, and dipped the point in white.
I’ve got them all packed up in tupperware and wax paper now, ready to cart to the mountains for our retreat on Friday.
The kids and I tested the scraps. They are really good! Husband still prefers the originals and wishes I hadn’t messed with a good thing. 🙂 I’ll have to make him some regular ones when I get back. But the rest of you should pin that top image for later! 🙂 Yum!
Gathering here.

Love those, and the cozy cabin picture in your last post! Love the theme!
Thanks!! Hopefully I’ll remember to take pics to share next week. 🙂
These are so cute and I bet very yummy!! I have enjoyed all of your ideas from your retreat. Please keep sharing, I don’t really watch videos.
I’m sure the ladies at your retreat will feel so special with all of your extra attention to details. God will be doing some mighty things during your church’s weekend.
Let us know how it goes.
Keeping my eyes on Him,
Mary

Thanks! I’ll try to share pics of the weekend when I get back. 🙂
I love them. It is always difficult to make an adult version of a childhood favourite. It looks like you succeeded.
Thanks#
I think these are so perfect! (My husband hates when I change anything too). Featuring when my party opens up tonight.
Thanks so much! They tasted amazing!
