Halloween Rice Krispy Treats

gluten free - soy free - dairy free - vegan - corn free - nut free - kid friendly 

---

My healthier Rice Krispy Treat got a cute Halloween Fall make-over and I wanted to share it with you all for something fun and festive (and super easy!) to make with your kids this season. 

Before our new baby arrives (possibly this week!) I've been trying to squeeze in all the Halloween and Fall fun with Grey before we enter our newborn bubble. 

These are healthier because they use organic brown rice cereal, corn free marshmallows and vegan butter - making it a better option than store bought treats! 

The recipe below is from my original Rice Krispy Treat post - all you need to add to this recipe is vegan chocolate sauce to make the face and the cookie cutters of your choice! 

Halloween Rice Krispy Treats 

INGREDIENTS

• 1 Bag of Dandie's Mini Marshmallows (or other corn-free marshmallow alternative) 
• 5 C. Organic Brown Rice Cereal
• 2 TBSP. Vegan Butter
• 2 TBSP. Coconut Oil
  
• Vegan chocolate sauce (I use the Ghirardelli's Dark Chocolate in the squirt bottle for easy application)
  
• Assorted Halloween or Fall cookie cutter shapes  
  
  

DIRECTIONS

• In a large microwave safe bowl (I used glass), place coconut oil, butter and bag of marshmallows.
• Heat on high in microwave for 35 seconds. 
• Stir, and heat in 30 second increments until marshmallows are melted.
• Stir in brown rice cereal until completely mixed. 
• Place mixture into a 9x9 glass pan and press down. 
• Once cooled (I put it in the refrigerator for ten minutes and then set it out on the counter before cutting), cut into fun Halloween and fall shapes.
• Draw on spooky faces and sayings and allow to sit to dry. 
• Seal and store additional treats to enjoy within the week.
