Ghost Halloween Rice Krispies Treat
Rice Krispie Squares are a favourite at our house, so I thought it would be fun to make some special ones for Halloween rice krispies treats. These would be great for a Halloween parties, or classroom celebrations, or so much fun tucked in a lunch box for a special treat. They’re quite easy peasy to make, and the kids can help out too.
I also love that Rice Krispie cereal treats only have a few ingredients, and they’re pretty much foolproof. Who doesn’t love easy halloween treats? They also seem to be everyone’s favorite recipe for a no-bake dessert. Pick up everything you need for these fun treats at your local grocery store, and have the ingredients in your pantry to make these crispy treats for the whole Halloween season. Wilton candy melts work well for the chocolate coating, you can find them in the baking aisle at a craft or baking specialty store. Or you can also use white chocolate chips. These ghost rice krispies are easy to make without cookie cutters. We used regular rice krispies in a rectangle shape and trimmed them into little ghosts.
The layer of white chocolate coating on these festive halloween rice krispie treats will also make them last a little while longer -that is if you can keep people from eating them! Store these fun halloween treats in an airtight container at room temperature for the best results. Or wrap these cute halloween treats in plastic wrap or individual cellophane bags for holiday treats.
Ghost Halloween Rice Krispies
Ingredients
- 6 cups rice krispies cereal
- 1/4 cup butter
- 10 oz bag of regular or mini marshmallows
- 1 tsp vanilla
- non-stick cooking spray
- white chocolate wafers
- milk chocolate chips
- popsicle sticks
Instructions
- Prepare a 9 x 12 baking dish by spraying with non-stick spray or coating in butter. Set aside.
- In a large pan over medium heat melt the marshmallows and butter, until all the marshmallows are melted. Stirring the whole time.
- Remove the melted marshmallows from the heat and stir in the vanilla and rice cereal into the marshmallow mixture. Quickly place the mixture in the prepared pan while it's still hot. Use a spoon dipped in cold water to smooth them out. Allow them to cool.
- Once cool, cut the rice krispies into small rectangles.
- 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.
- Melt white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave safe bowl. Use a spoon to help cover the ghost in white chocolate. Place on parchment paper or wax paper and add milk chocolate chips for eyes. Allow to harden and enjoy! Store in a sealed container.
We used chocolate chips for our ghost eyes, but you could use candy eyes instead for your sweet treats. You could even substitute some black frosting in a piping bag for the eyes if you wish.These little ghost are such yummy festive treats, they’re sure to disappear!
These are perfect for any Halloween celebrating, but especially fun for a school halloween party. They’re guaranteed to be a huge hit. Move over Halloween candy, candy corn, and peanut butter cups, classic rice krispie treats just got a Halloween makeover! With these Ghost Halloween Rice Krispy treats, life really is a party!
