PUMPKIN RICE KRISPIE TREATS RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by รก-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 gives the treats a more vibrant color and flavor. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well before using.
  • Don't overcook the marshmallows: Overcooked marshmallows will make the treats too hard. Cook them just until they are melted and smooth.
  • Add the cereal gradually: Adding the cereal all at once will make the treats too dry. Add it gradually and stir until the cereal is evenly coated.
  • Press the treats firmly into the pan: This will help them hold their shape when you cut them.
  • Let the treats cool completely before cutting them: This will help them set and prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Rice Krispie Pumpkin Treats are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these treats in no time. So next time you're looking for a festive treat, give Rice Krispie Pumpkin Treats a try!
