Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats
- 1 package Miniature Marshmallows, 10 Ounce Bag
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/8 teaspoons Salt
- 4 drops Orange Food Coloring
- 6 cups Crisp Rice Cereal
- 8 whole Tootsie Rolls
- 1/2 cups Green Icing
- In a large saucepan, combine marshmallows, butter, and salt. Cook and stir until melted. Remove from heat and tint mixture orange with food coloring. Add cereal and stir.
- With buttered hands (you have to butter them multiple times), shape into desired sized balls (I made mine rather small for 3 year olds). Set on waxed paper. If they begin to ooze apart, then they need to be more tightly packed together.
- Cut Tootsie Rolls in half and press into the top of the pumpkin (to make a stem). With an icing tip, use the green icing to ice a leaf by the Tootsie Roll stem and twirl green icing around the pumpkin for the vine.
- If you are taking these somewhere, package in a clear plastic party bag and tie with a ribbon.
