Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • White chocolate or candy melts (for mummy decorations)
  • Chocolate chips or chocolate candy melts (for spider decorations)
  • Candy eyes (for mummies and spiders)
  • Black licorice or pretzels (for spider legs)
  • Cooking spray or butter (for greasing)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Rice Krispies Treats:
    • In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
    • Stir in the crispy rice cereal until well coated.
    • Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Use a spatula or wax paper to press the mixture evenly into the dish. Let it cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Cut into Shapes:
    • Once cooled, cut the Rice Krispies treats into rectangles for mummies and circles (use a round cookie cutter or the rim of a glass) for spiders.
  • Decorate the Mummies:
    • Melt the white chocolate or candy melts in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until fully melted and smooth.
    • Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the rectangular Rice Krispies treats in a crisscross pattern to resemble mummy bandages.
    • Place two candy eyes on each mummy before the chocolate hardens.
  • Decorate the Spiders:
    • Melt the chocolate chips or chocolate candy melts in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted.
    • Dip or spread the chocolate over the circular Rice Krispies treats to cover them completely.
    • Place two candy eyes near the top of each spider.
    • Cut the black licorice or pretzels into small pieces and attach them to the sides of the spider as legs by pressing them into the sides before the chocolate sets.
  • Let the Decorations Set:
    • Allow the decorated Rice Krispies treats to sit at room temperature until the chocolate and candy melt harden.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
    • Serve your spooky treats on a platter for a fun and festive Halloween dessert!
