Football season is here!!! Woohoo! We love football season in our house. It is the perfect reason to stay home and relax on the couch with the game on. Ok relaxing may be a bit much depending on who is playing. When the Seahawks are playing it can get a bit loud as John and our neighbor yell at the tv screen and get excited over the game. I love football season because it is the perfect reason to make a huge pot of chili or a sweet treat. Or maybe both if you want too. Today we are sharing Salted Caramel Rice Krispies Football Treats! HELLO YUM!
We are pretty much in love with anything salted caramel and we love rice krispie treats so why not combine the two into a fabulous treat!

My gang loves rice krispie treats, but this takes them to a whole new level! I haven’t had breakfast yet and I’m sitting here thinking how I would love one (or 3) of your treats right about now. Caramel is one of my favorite flavors. Love the football design!
