Ingredients

Scale

For the Rice Krispie Treat Base:

  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 (10 oz) bag mini marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Green food coloring (gel or liquid)

For Frankenstein Decoration:

  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate melting wafers
  • Candy eyes
  • Black gel icing
  • Mini marshmallows or pretzel sticks

Instructions

  1. Melt: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add mini marshmallows and stir until smooth.
  2. Tint: Remove from heat and stir in green food coloring until desired shade is reached.
  3. Mix: Add Rice Krispies and stir until fully coated.
  4. Set: Press mixture into a greased or lined 9×13-inch baking dish. Let cool for 20 minutes.
  5. Cut: Cut into rectangles to form Frankenstein heads.
  6. Decorate Hair: Dip tops into melted chocolate to create hair.
  7. Add Eyes: Place candy eyes just below the chocolate line.
  8. Draw Faces: Use black gel icing to draw a stitched mouth and eyebrows.
  9. Finish: Insert mini marshmallows or pretzel sticks into the sides for bolts. Let decorations set before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh marshmallows for optimal gooeyness and texture.
  • Add green coloring after removing from heat to keep color vibrant.
  • Lightly grease hands and tools to avoid sticking while pressing mixture.
  • Let treats cool completely before cutting or decorating for clean edges.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
