Ingredient Notes

With a few simple ingredients you likely have in your pantry, you can create an easy Halloween dessert to serve your kiddos. It's really easy to make great Halloween food.

Salted Butter - an excellent balance to the sweet marshmallows. 
Mini Marshmallows - you can use an equal weight of large marshmallows in the recipe, but they’ll take longer to melt.
Pure Vanilla Extract - an optional ingredient.
Rice Krispie Cereal - the main ingredient in this recipe. 
White chocolate - or white candy melts.
Candy Googly Eyes - found in the baking aisle in most grocery stores.

Gluten-free version

To create gluten-free Halloween Mummy Rice Krispies treats, ensure your chocolate and candy eyes don’t contain gluten. 

Also, classic Kellogg’s Rice Krispies are not gluten-free (they contain malt flavoring derived from barley). However, you can find other crispy rice cereals that are, such as Nature’s Path.

Step-By-Step Instructions

First, let's make a pan of Rice Krispie treats. 

1. LINE PAN WITH PARCHMENT PAPER: Line your 9” x 9” or 9” x 13” pan with parchment paper. Leave a 1-2 inch overhang to make removing the treats easy. Alternatively, spray your pan with non-stick cooking spray. You can also measure the remaining ingredients since this recipe comes together quickly.
2. MELT BUTTER and then MARSHMALLOWS: Next, melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add the marshmallows, continually stirring until they are melted. If using vanilla extract, add it now to the melted mixture and mix well.

3. ADD RICE KRISPIES: Remove the pan from heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal. Quickly but gently fold the mixture to coat evenly. 

4. PLACE IN PAN: Spread mixture into prepared baking pan. Using a spatula coated with non-stick cooking spray, gently press and spread the mixture evenly to all corners of the pan.

5. LET SIT: Now, let the mixture sit for 30-60 minutes to harden before slicing it into rectangles. 

6. CUT RECTANGLE PIECES: Using the parchment paper, remove your Rice Krispie Treats from the pan and cut them into rectangular pieces. (You can cut 18 or 24 pieces, depending on how big you want your mummy treats.)

7. MELT CHOCOLATE: Now, take your white chocolate or candy melts and place them in a microwave-safe bowl to melt them. Cook candy melts according to the package directions. If using white chocolate morsels, melt at 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is mostly melted. Stir until all lumps dissolve.

8. ADD CHOCOLATE BANDAGES: Next, place melted chocolate in a plastic zipper bag or piping bag. Snip a corner of the bag off and drizzle white chocolate back and forth over Rice Krispie Treats. 

Finally, add googly eyes to each mummy treat. 

Let them sit for 60 minutes to set or overnight, then eat and enjoy!

How long do Rice Krispies Treats Keep?

You can keep your Halloween Rice Krispies treats in an airtight container (or plastic bag) at room temperature for up to 7 days.

Expert Tips

• MAKE AHEAD: You can make Halloween Rice Krispies Treats a day or two in advance. Store them in an airtight container, and add the eyes just before serving to prevent them from becoming too soft.
• Use fresh, good-quality marshmallows. Old marshmallows may not melt well in this recipe.
• Cook marshmallows over medium-low heat. If you cook the recipe over high heat, there is a good chance the sugar will crystalize, turning your Halloween treats hard.
• Gently fold the Rice Krispie Cereal into marshmallows. The cereal is delicate and, if mixed harshly, gets crushed.
• Speed up the cooling process by placing the treats in the refrigerator. Putting the mummy goodies in the fridge for a few minutes will help them cool faster, so you can add their white chocolate “bandages” sooner.
• If you can't find candy eyeballs, use mini chocolate chips.
