Description
Celebrate Halloween with these vibrant and delicious Sweet Candy Corn Krispie Treats! A playful twist on a classic, these layered treats feature the colors and crunch of candy corn, making them a festive showstopper.
Ingredients
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
10 oz (1 bag) mini marshmallows
4 tbsp unsalted butter
Yellow and orange gel food coloring
1/2 cup candy corn candies (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare an 8-inch round cake pan by greasing it.
Gently melt the butter and marshmallows together until smooth.
Separate the marshmallow mixture into three bowls, coloring one yellow, one orange, and leaving the third white.
Mix two cups of cereal into each bowl.
Press the yellow mixture into the outer ring of the pan, followed by the orange mixture in the middle, and the white mixture in the center.
Allow them to set for thirty minutes, then add extra candy corn to the top before slicing and serving.
Notes
Always melt your butter and marshmallows over low heat. This prevents them from becoming tough or discolored.
Once the cereal is mixed into the marshmallow, it begins to set. Have your pan prepared and be ready to press the layers immediately for the best results.
Take your time pressing the layers into the pan. Aim for an even thickness in each colored section so the finished treat is beautifully uniform.
Don’t skip greasing your pan. A light coating of butter or cooking spray will make removing the treats much easier.
Allow the treats to set for the recommended time. This ensures they hold their shape when sliced.
