We are a tad bit excited for the Minion movie to come out this week!
There is just something way too funny about the Minions. Our friend Patti and John joke about the Minions all the time and are known to watch the movie at least a few times a month. I can't wait to see them giggle at the theater.
This week we are sharing some fun Minion inspired treats. For the last movie, I made Minion Cupcakes which were so much fun to make! Today we are sharing Minion Rice Krispies Treats.
