Ingredients
Scale
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 package (10 oz, about 40) marshmallows
1/2 teaspoon green food coloring
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
Candy eyes
Black licorice or melted chocolate for hair and stitches
Pretzel rods for bolts (optional)
Instructions
Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat.
Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
Remove from heat. Stir in green food coloring until you achieve a vibrant monster green.
Add Rice Krispies cereal and stir until well coated.
Press the mixture evenly into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
Let cool completely.
Cut into squares.
Decorate each square to look like Frankenstein’s monster using candy eyes, licorice or chocolate for hair and stitches, and pretzel rods for bolts if desired.
Notes
For easier handling, grease your hands or a spatula with butter or cooking spray before pressing the mixture into the pan.
Use a serrated knife to cut the cooled treats for cleaner edges.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
