Description

Classic Rice Krispy Treats get a Halloween update with black and orange chocolate sandwich cookies. An easy, spooky treat for any day of the week.

Ingredients
  • 5 cup Rice Krispy cereal
  • 12 chocolate sandwich cookies, chopped
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 cup mini marshmallows
  • (optional) a few drops of food coloring, depending on the color and vibrancy
Instructions
  1. 1

    In an 8x8 or 9x9 pan, mix the cereal and chopped chocolate sandwich cookies, mixing until evenly distributed.  This can also be completed in a separate bowl, but I like this method to save on dishes.

  2. 2

    On low heat. melt the butter in a medium to large saucepan.  Once melted, add in the marshmallows, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula until the marshmallows are also melted and homogenous. Turn the Note: if adding food coloring, place a few drops in when half of the marshmallows melted.

  3. 3

    Turn the stove off and immediately add the cereal and chopped chocolate sandwich cookies to the saucepan. Stir until the cereal is completely covered in the melted marshmallow mixture.

  4. 4

    Transfer the cereal and marshmallows back into the pan and let cool on a wire rack.  These will cool very quickly, but I recommend giving them about 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Once cooled, slice to your desired shape and size, serve and enjoy!
