  • Use a variety of toppings: You can use any type of toppings you like on your moon rocks. Some popular options include chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed pretzels.
  • Get creative: Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors and toppings. You can make moon rocks with different types of chocolate, peanut butter, and Rice Krispies. You can also add different flavorings, such as vanilla extract or cinnamon.
