PUMPKIN RICE KRISPIE TREATS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Provided by á-92703

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
3 tablespoons butter
1 (10-ounce) bag marshmallows
Red and yellow food coloring (to make orange color)
12 Tootsie Rolls
1 green fruit roll-up (you will only be able to find the blue/green combo)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large sauce pan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir constantly until melted. Remove from heat. Add approximately 4 drops of red food coloring and 2 drop yellow food coloring. Add until you have a nice bright orange color. Mix in Rice Krispies. Form small balls into the shape of a pumpkin (Tip: Add Non-Stick Cooking Spray (Pam) or Crisco to your hands before forming your balls). Cut Tootsie Roll in half and add a half into each pumpkin while still warm for the pumpkin stem. Cut small leaves from the green portion of your Fruit Roll Up and place on top near the Tootsie Roll stem.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your rice krispie treats a more intense pumpkin flavor.
  • Don't overcook the marshmallows: Overcooked marshmallows will make your rice krispie treats tough and chewy.
  • Add the cereal gradually: Adding the cereal all at once will make it difficult to stir and could result in lumpy treats.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the pan: This will help the treats hold their shape.
  • Let the treats cool completely before cutting them: This will prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin rice krispie treats are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your treats turn out perfectly every time. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive treat, give pumpkin rice krispie treats a try!
