A Tasty Halloween Treat
By Lynn Forgy A very tasty, not to mention cheap, Halloween twist on an old recipe. I love Rice Crispy Treats. To make them a Halloween treat, you can add food coloring (orange would be my preference), and if you're really good you can make them into "scary" shapes. I'm not, but I can shape them into individual squares or circles and add a piece of candy corn to each little treat. *For a "healthier" version, meaning less fat, I use the Fat Free Parkay butter spray with marshmallows, or you can substitute light corn syrup, and just stir in the marshmallows. I'm afraid that for this recipe, I don't measure, I just pour in the butter or corn syrup, throw in some marshmallows, then when it gets "sticky" I add the rice crispies or cornflakes. Enjoy! |

Sometimes I like putting nuts...(pecans usually)...chopped very fine in with the mix. They taste great!
