The Easiest Halloween Treat…and it’s a No-Bake Dessert too!
Sometimes (or all the times) easy is just best. Everyone loves a good ole fashioned rice krispie treat! So jazz it up for Halloween with a little green food dye and decoration. I made mini Frankenstein Rice Krispies but then I had the fun idea to make one giant one using the whole pan! This was so easy to make! It just a few minutes I made dessert for 20+ and I only made 1 bowl dirty too!
The chocolate sprinkles are optional but I just liked the added texture on the hair! And if you want to use chocolate frosting instead of melted chocolate that will work too! Melted chocolate is just easy for me because I always have melts on hand. I just zap them in the microwave and I have the perfect melted chocolate for fun candy things like this.
Have fun playing around with how wide or close you put the eyeballs! That and the eyebrows TOTALLY changes how this guy looks, it’s so funny! If you have kids they will LOVE making this with you! Happy Halloween everyone!
