Last week, we had another fun playdate with the kids! We made some adorable Pumpkins out of Rice Krispies! They were almost as easy to make as regular rice krispies treat, but definitely more fun!
Ingredients:
- Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 Bag of Marshmallows
- Butter
- Red & yellow food coloring
- 18-20 tootsie rolls unwrapped
- Green Frosting for leaves
Directions:
To make, all you need to do is follow the rice krispies treats recipe on the back of the box. When your marshmallows are nice and melted, add red and yellow food coloring until you reach a pumpkin orange color.
After you stir the rice krispies into the orange marshmallow mixture, spray some cooking spray on the palms of your hands and roll the mixture quickly into balls. I found that I needed to spray my hands between rolling each ball. Place a tootsie roll in the center of each pumpkin and garnish with frosting leaves.
Oh, this is kinda cool..
