Easy Halloween Party Treats: Skeleton Rice Krispies

Every Halloween my next door neighbor makes me feel like a decorating slacker. Their yard gets better year after year. This year they put up a projector that makes it look like skeletons are dancing across the side of their house!

I’m green with envy.

Those skeletons inspired these Halloween party treats. These would look awesome with the “Halloweenies” that my kids get a kick out of!

• 6 cups Cocoa Krispies
• 1 package, 10.5 oz, Mini Marshmallows
• 3 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks
• Wilton Sparkle Color Gels in White and Black

Directions:

Generously Grease a 10 x 15 x 1 jelly roll/baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.

In a microwave safe bowl, add butter and marshmallows. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Check and microwave for another 30 seconds. Continue to microwave in 20-second increments until marshmallows are puffy and butter is slightly melted. The butter does not have to melt completely. My mixture takes 1:40.

Stir marshmallows and butter until all of the butter is melted.

Add Cocoa Krispies and stir well.

Spoon into prepared pan and press firmly to flatten. Set aside to harden.

Once hard, use a gingerbread man cookie cutter to cut out shapes. Or you can use a “Gingerdead” cutter!

Decorate shapes with white sparkle gel for the bones/skeleton and use black sparkle gels for the eyes and mouth.

This is a fun and easy snack to serve as Halloween party treats. Or you can make them with the kids just because!
