Pumpkin Rice Krispies treats are a seasonal twist on the classic recipe. If you are a fan of pumpkin like me, give this a try.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup butter
- 10 oz bag marshmallows (regular or pumpkin if you can find it)
- 1 box (3.4oz) pumpkin spice instant pudding mix
- 6 cup rice krispies cereal – regular or chocolate (I used chocolate in this batch)
- Optional: sprinkles, candy corn, white chocolate
DIRECTIONS
- Use parchment paper or butter to prepare an 8 inch square dish.
- Place butter and marshmallows in a large bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
- Stir and return to microwave at 30 second intervals until melted *
- Add pudding (p0wder only) and stir until completely combined.
- Fold in cereal.
- Pour into your prepared dish. I use a piece of parchment paper to press my treats into the pan (no sticky butter fingers!) but go ahead and use your butter fingers if you don’t have parchment paper.
- Add sprinkles, candy corn, melted white chocolate, or chocolate.
- Next take a spoon and scrap all of the marshmallows and cereal that stuck to the bottom of the bowl and eat immediately!
* My microwave takes 1 ½ minutes to melt the marshmallows perfectly.
