Tell me these aren't just the cutest Halloween treats!
Rice Krispies contacted me and asked if F&B and I would like to try out the recipe and the kids were thrilled. Not only are they adorable pumpkins, they have a surprise inside (mini Milky Way bars)! Better still, they are easy to make and look amazing. Ben has already requested that this is what he wants to bring for his class Halloween party (yes, we can bring homemade food, yay!) and Faith now wants to do the same.
Pumpkin Rice Krispies Treats:
2. Add KELLOGG’S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.
3. Using 1/2-cup measuring cup coated with cooking spray divide warm cereal mixture into 12 portions. Using buttered hands shape each portion into pumpkin shape around one candy piece.
4. Pipe frosting onto each for vines and attach gumdrop for stem. For the Tootsie Rolls instead, cut each one in half and make an indentation for the stem with the tip of your finger, press into place.
(Giveaway has ended but the recipe is still yummy!)

ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is dressing up. K makes me and her father dress with her. It is usually a themed Halloween for us.
ReplyDeleteNow I wish I'd signed up for the treat at the preschool fall party instead of the craft! My favorite part of Halloween is the extra activities/experiences I get to share with my daughter -- like pumpkin patches, pumpkin carving, picking out costumes, and trick-or-treating.
ReplyDeletemy favorite part is handing out candy to all the kids trick or treating...love to see their costumes

My favorite part of halloween is helping my kids dress up and then taking them trick or treating so everyone can see their costumes... I'm kind of sad that my oldest is not wanting to ToT this year, but he's still dressing up to stay home and hand out candy with his dad.
