Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 teaspoon green food coloring
  • 2 tablespoons candy monster eyes

Instructions
 

  • Line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the mini marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth.
  • Remove the pan from heat and stir in the green food coloring until the mixture is evenly colored.
  • Pour in the crispy rice cereal and stir quickly until all the cereal is coated.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan using a spatula or wax paper.
  • While the treats are still warm, press the candy monster eyes evenly across the top.
  • Let the treats cool completely at room temperature before cutting into squares.

Notes

Press the candy eyes in right after spreading the mixture so they stick without melting. If the treats seem too sticky when cutting, run a knife under hot water and dry it first. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
