Rice Krispie treats were a childhood favorite of mine — well, pretty much anything with marshmallows was a favorite, but I have extra fond memories of fresh warm rice krispie squares.
As the Halloween month creeps along, we’ve got to start getting our spook on for the Big Day! No better way to start then dancing to the “Monster Mash” while making my fun Frankenstein Krispies!
See all my other Halloween-perfect treats such as Vampire Pancakes and Pineapple Jack-O-Lanterns on my blog.
INGREDIENTS
6 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
10 ounce bag of vegan Marshmallows (I use the brand DANDIES)
3 tablespoons coconut oil
1 cup dairy free semi sweet chocolate chips (I use the brand Enjoy Life)
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
4-5 drops of Green food dye
Candy Eyes
Parchment Paper
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large saucepan over medium heat toss in the coconut oil.
Once the oil is melted add the marshmallows. Stir until the mallows have melted then add in your drops of green food dye.
Add in the cereal and stir until all the cereal is coated.
Pour mixture into a greased pan, and press until its flat and molded to the pan’s shape.
Allow it to cool while you make the chocolate sauce.
In a microwave bowl, melt the chocolate chips and shortening for 30 second intervals, stirring each time until the chocolate is completely melted.
To form the rectangle shape… I used my iPhone 10x hahahaha… honest!
Cut the cooled cereal into rectangles and you will have to trip the edges with a knife to make sharper edges, as most pans have round edges.
Dip the top of the rectangle into the chocolate. Place it on parchment paper to set.
Use a small spatula or tooth pick to dip in the chocolate and form a straight line as Frankenstein’s mouth and stitches.
Dip each eyeball into the chocolate, just coating the back side of them. Place two eyeballs on each Frankenstein.
Allow the chocolate to harden and set up , then serve enjoy this tasty treat!
Happy Haunting my friends! Tag me on social media if you re create this spooky treat!
