Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
- 1 (10oz) bag mini marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10 oz green candy melts
- 3 oz black candy melts
- Royal icing eyes
- Black jimmies sprinkles
Instructions
- Butter a 9×13-inch casserole dish or line with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the Rice Krispie cereal until evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared dish. Use a spatula or buttered hands to press the mixture evenly into the dish, ensuring the top is flat. Let the treats set at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
- Once the base has set, remove it from the dish and place it on a cutting board. Cut the slab into rectangles.
- Melt the green candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler until smooth.
- Dip the top third of each rectangle into the melted green candy. Immediately press black jimmies sprinkles into the wet coating to create hair.
- While the green coating is still soft, add two royal icing eyes to each treat.
- Melt the black candy melts in the microwave in short intervals, stirring between each. Pour into a piping bag and pipe stitches and mouths onto each treat.
- Allow the decorated treats to set completely before serving or storing.
Notes
- Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture.
- Grease your spatula or hands to easily press the mixture into the pan.
- Work quickly when decorating as candy melts set fast.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
