Ambrosia Trifles

Whenever we get our extended family together for the holidays, my mom always has a small bowl of snack mix on the counter.

Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats are perfectly pink and full of fun strawberry flavor. Top them with pillowy buttercream frosting and fresh strawberries for an extra-special touch.

Chocolate covered caramel s’mores – because you can’t have too many ways to eat roasted marshmallows! I have this obsession with going to Disney World.
