Ghost Rice Krispie Squares

Ghost Rice Krispie Squares: the perfect easy recipe for a special Halloween sweet treat on a stick for your little ghouls and goblins.

These sweet little ghosts are the perfect treat for your little ghouls and goblins.  They’re easy to make for any Halloween celebrations.

I’m joining in on the Seasonal Simplicity Fall Series today sharing all kinds of fun Halloween crafts, decor, and recipes to help you celebrate.  Be sure to check out all the other Halloween inspiration at the bottom of this post.

Rice Krispie Squares are a favourite at our house, so I thought it would be fun to make some special ones for Halloween.  These would be great for a Halloween party, or classroom celebrations, or tucked in a lunch box for a special treat.  They’re quite easy to make, and the kids can help out too. 

I also love that they only have a few ingredients, and they’re pretty much fool proof.

The layer of white chocolate coating will also make them last a little while longer -that is if you can keep people from eating them!

Ingredients

• 6 cups Rice Krispies
• 1/4 cup butter
• 10 oz bag of marshmallows
• 1 tsp vanilla
• white chocolate wafers
• milk chocolate chips
• popsicle sticks

Instructions

1. Prepare a 9 x 12 baking dish by spraying with non-stick cooking spray or coating in butter. Set aside.
2. In a large pan over medium heat melt the marshmallows and butter, until all the marshmallows are melted. Stiring the whole time.
3. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and rice krispies. Quickly place the mixure in the baking dish while it's still hot. Use a spoon dipped in cold water to smooth them out. Allow them to cool.
4. Once cool, cut the rice krispies into small rectangles.
5. To create the ghosts, use a sharp knife to cut the edges of the top of a rectangle to make it into a ghost shape, and insert a popsicle stick.
6. Melt white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Use a spoon to help cover the ghost in white chocoalte. Place on parchment and add milk chocolate chips for eyes. Allow to harden and enjoy!

These little ghost are so good they’re sure to disappear!
