Ingredients
Rice Krispie Cereal
The star of this recipe is, of course, the classic Rice Krispie cereal. You will need about 6 cups of this cereal for one batch of treats. Make sure to get the original version, as flavored or generic versions may not turn out the same.
Marshmallows
The key to making these rice krispie treats soft and gooey is the marshmallows. You will need one 10 oz bag of marshmallows for every 6 cups of cereal. For a fun Halloween twist, you can use mini marshmallows or even get spooky-shaped marshmallows.
Butter
Butter is essential for adding flavor and helping to bind the marshmallows and cereal together. You will need about 3 tablespoons of butter for one batch of treats.
Food Coloring
To give your treats a festive Halloween look, you will need some food coloring. This is optional, but it adds a fun touch to the recipe. You can use orange or green food coloring, or mix them together for a spooky effect.
Candy or Sprinkles
To add even more Halloween flair to your treats, you can top them with candy or sprinkles. This is a fun step for kids to help with, as they can decorate the treats however they want.
Instructions
Step 1: Melt Butter and Marshmallows
Start by melting the butter in a large pot over low heat. Once the butter is melted, add in the marshmallows and stir until they are completely melted and combined with the butter.
Step 2: Add Food Coloring
If you are using food coloring, now is the time to add it to the marshmallow mixture. Use a few drops and mix well until you get your desired color.
Step 3: Add Rice Krispie Cereal
Remove the pot from the heat and add in the rice krispie cereal. Stir well until all of the cereal is coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Step 4: Press into Pan
Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and press the rice krispie mixture evenly into the pan. You can also use a smaller pan for thicker treats, or a larger pan for thinner treats.
Step 5: Add Toppings
If you are adding candy or sprinkles, now is the time to press them into the top of the treats while they are still warm and sticky.
Step 6: Let Cool and Cut
Allow the treats to cool and set for at least 30 minutes before cutting into squares. You can also use cookie cutters to make fun shapes.
Conclusion
These Halloween rice krispie treats are a fun and easy way to add a festive touch to your Halloween celebrations. They are perfect for kids and adults alike and can be customized with different colors and toppings. So forget the store-bought treats and make your own this year with this simple and delicious recipe. Happy Halloween!
