These balls are so much fun! I made them with my kids the other day and they were so happy. This recipe is a great bonding experience with your kids! It is nice to prepare food with the ones you love, right? Anyway, you can use two different colours for this besides yellow and red. Not only do they look beautiful, but they also taste so good! These little treats will surely bring a big smile on your faces. Feel free to add more ingredients if needed. Give it your take. Enjoy!
Ingredients
1/4 cup butter
1 bag large marshmallows approximately 40 marshmallows
6 cups Rice Krispies
Red & Yellow Liquid Food Coloring
Mini Rolos
Green M&M’s
1/4 cup cooking oil or melted butter in a small bowl
How to make Rice Krispie Treat Pumpkins
Step 1: Place a large pot on the stove and turn the heat to low.
Step 2: Add the butter and allow it to melt.
Step 3: Add the marshmallows and stir until well mixed with the butter.
Step 4: Remove the pot from the heat. Add droplets of yellow food colouring into the mixture
followed by the colour red and stir every drop until you achieve your preferred colour.
Step 5: Stir in the Rice Krispies.
Step 6: Rub oil or butter all over your hands. Get a load of the Rice Krispie mixture and form
small balls out of it.
Step 7: Place the balls on a parchment paper.
Step 8: Add a Mini Rolo on top of each pumpkin as stem and green M&M for the leaf.
Step 9: Let them cool at room temperature to harden.
Notes:
If you are going to use gloves, you don’t need to oil it up to prevent the balls from sticking. They don’t stick on gloves.
