Rice Krispie Treats Pumpkins As Easy Halloween Treats
Rice Krispies treats pumpkins are a fun and festive treat that is easy to make, tastes delicious, and can be decorated in different ways to fit diverse styles and themes during this Halloween period.
Equipment
- Pair of nonstick food handling gloves
Ingredients
- 6 cups of Rice Krispies
- 1 large bag of Marshmallows
- Orange food coloring
- Green M&M’s
- Mini Rolos
- ¼ cup of butter
- ½ cup of cooking oil optional, to make your hands non-sticky
Instructions
- Place a large pot over low heat, and melt the butter. Now, add in the marshmallows and stir slowly until it is melted and well mixed with the butter.
- Remove from heat. Now, add in drops of the orange coloring while stirring until it is properly mixed and orange in color.
- Add in the Rice Krispies, and stir to combine.
- Now, get a non-stick food handling glove, roll the Rice Krispies mix into small balls, and set aside on parchment paper. If you don't have gloves, coat both sides of your hands with cooking oil before rolling the mixture into balls, and coat again for every ball.
- While the balls are still warm, gently press the Mini Rolos on the top of each ball, and add the green M&M’s beside it as a leaf.
- Allow to cool, and your Rice Krispies treats pumpkins are ready for your Halloween party.
Notes
- In step 5, if the balls are no longer warm, make a small indent using a small, round object on the top for the Mini Rolos to sit.
- If you can't get orange food coloring, get red and yellow food coloring, and use a mix of them to achieve the orange color, a ratio of 3:1 for yellow and red would do.
