If you’re like me, you’re probably in need of a last minute Halloween treat for neighbors, family, teachers, or friends. Am I right? These witchy rice krispy treats are the PERFECT solution. A twist on a classic!
Obviously, rice krispy treats are a classic, but add some food coloring and your standard treat and you get witchy rice krispy treats.
When I asked my mom “how to make these” I felt a little silly….really? A grown woman (AND food blogger at that!) who doesn’t know how to make a decent batch of rice krispy treats? Embarrassing…. My thing is, these treats can’t be stale. They can’t be hard. They have to be soft, gooey, and pretty perfect or I won’t touch them. Snobby. YUP. Getting the mixture just right is a work of art.
