Rice Pumpkin Treats

I saw this on Pinterest and thought I would give it a go. I used the recipe on the side of the Kellogg's box. Unfortunately, Sam couldn't participate in this project. He is allergic to rice. I also realize that Mattox is wearing the same shirt that he wore when we did the glitter pumpkins. Ha. It's in the weekly rotation because it's so darn cute.

First, you melt the marshmallows with butter.

Then, add the Rice Krispies.

While everything is still warm, add the food coloring. (Red and Yellow = Orange)

Put butter on your hands and roll into a ball. Top with Tootsie Rolls.

Mattox didn't care to participate with this part. He didn't want butter on his hands. :/

 

Overall, this was pretty fun. The hardest part was getting the treats to stay together with the Tootsie Roll in them. Good Luck.
