Instructions
Rice Krispies Base
In a large pot melt butter over low heat.
Add one cup of marshmallows at a time, stirring until completely melted and soupy.
Stir in Rice Krispies one cup at a time. The mixture will start to thicken and get progressively more difficult to stir.
Scoop mixture onto an oiled sheet pan and flatten to about 1.5 inches thick. Refrigerate.
Decorating Halloween Monsters
Add individual color groups of candy melt to three separate containers
Microwave each for one mixture and stir. Heat again for approx. 15 seconds. Do not overheat.
Add a teaspoon of shortening to create a silkier texture.
Remove treats from the fridge and using a sharp knife cut random shapes with straight bottoms.
To add spice flavors, mix chosen spice into a teaspoon of melted butter and brush onto Krispies. (optional)
Determine general design pattern. Place treat on a slotted spatula and using a spoon, gently drop coat variations of candy melt one color at a time.
No need to coat the back. Once designed, slide onto a clean sheet pan. Using a fork or toothpick, create patterns between the different shades of candy melt or dip a toothpick into various colors splatter design on coated Krispies.
Add eyes in any variation. Refrigerate before serving.
