Peppermint Rice Krispie Treats

I am a HUGE peppermint lover.  Whether it is in brownies, cheesecake, cake, fudge, frosting, cookies, candy or whatever, I will eat it.  I was walking down the aisles at my grocery store the other day and I found some PEPPERMINT MARSHMALLOWS!!! So, what did I do?  I threw a package in my cart, of course!!!  Remember my Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats?  With those, I add a little strawberry extract, because I feel like there isn't enough strawberry flavor with just the marshmallows, but with these peppermint marshmallows, I feel like there is a perfect amount of peppermint flavor, no extra flavoring needed!  These are delicious!  If you want to dress them up a bit, drizzle with a little white or milk chocolate! Yummy.
