Scale
Main Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 15 ounces marshmallows (mini or regular sized; about 1 1/2 (10 ounce) bags)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 9 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 1 cup Halloween M&Ms
- 1/2 cup Halloween sprinkles
- 1 cup candy corn
Instructions
- Prepare the pan. Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with foil and spray it with cooking spray. Set aside for later use.
- Melt butter and marshmallows. In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and marshmallows together. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Add vanilla extract. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract for added flavor.
- Combine with cereal and candy. Quickly stir in the 9 cups of Rice Krispies cereal, followed by the Halloween M&Ms, Halloween sprinkles, and candy corn. Mix thoroughly to coat the cereal with the marshmallow mixture.
- Press mixture into the pan. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and press it down evenly using hands sprayed with cooking spray to avoid sticking. Be careful not to burn yourself while pressing.
- Cool and serve. Allow the treats to cool completely before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy your festive Halloween Rice Krispies Treats.
Notes
- Use cooking spray on your hands when pressing the mixture to prevent sticking and burns.
- You can substitute Halloween candy with any themed candy you prefer.
- Store the treats in an airtight container to keep them fresh for several days.
- For easier cutting, chill the treats in the refrigerator before slicing.
- Adjust the amount of candy mix-ins based on your preference for sweetness and texture.
