These No-Bake Mint Chocolate Krispies are the perfect treat for the upcoming St. Patrick's Day holiday!! Not only are they festive, they are super delicious! You only 5 ingredients and about 5 minutes to whip up these puppies. I melted some chocolate chips and green candy melts to drizzle on top of the krispies, but that is totally optional. I think it really adds to the festiveness of the candy.
I used white almond bark for these No-Bake Mint Chocolate Krispies. I like the Walmart brand of almond bark. It is inexpensive and works/tastes great in this recipe. One note about working with almond bark and candy melts. You can't add regular liquids to the mixture because it will seize up. To flavor the almond bark, you need to use peppermint oil. You can get some at Hobby Lobby or Michaels. The oil doesn't make the almond bark seize up.
