A simple but impressive treat to make for Halloween. These spooky spiced rice crispy treats are flavored with cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, and finished off with cute chocolate decorations for a perfect treat - no tricks!
Line a 9x9 tray with parchment paper and grease the pan with canola oil.
In a medium saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter and 3 ½ cups of mini marshmallows over low heat, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula to encourage melting and avoid the marshmallows from toasting.
After the first minute or two of melting, once the butter has melted entirely, add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg, stirring it into the marshmallow mix.
As soon as the marshmallows are melted and melded into a single mass, take the pan off the heat and add the crispy rice cereal. Using the rubber spatula, stir the cereal into the marshmallow mix until it’s evenly distributed.
Pour the cereal treats into the prepared pan, using a second piece of parchment paper to press the treats into the sides and corners and to create an even layer.
Let cool at room temperature for about an hour and then use a sharp knife to cut treats into 12 even sized bars.
Melt the white chocolate and semisweet chocolate chips, adding each into respective piping bags (or Ziploc bags). Pipe chocolate decorations onto the top, using candy eyes for mummies, chocolate cookies for bat wings, or just pure piping skills to make webs, spiders, or monsters! Enjoy!
