Frosted Marshmallow Pumpkin Crispy Treats Food

MARSHMALLOW BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat marshmallow creme, softened butter, vanilla and 1 tablespoon milk with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in powdered sugar until fluffy. If necessary, beat in more milk, a few drops at a time, until thin enough to spread.
• Fills and frosts 1 (8-inch) two-layer cake.

RICE KRISPIE TREAT PUMPKINS

Steps:

• In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat.
• Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted and combined with the butter.
• Remove from the heat. Add several drops of yellow food colouring, mix it together, then add red food colouring one drop at a time, mixing as you go. Add red/yellow drops until you reach your desired colour. (I used about 4 drops red and 12 drops yellow). Mix well.
• Add the Rice Krispies and stir to combine.
• Coat both sides of your hands with a generous amount of cooking oil or butter, and roll the Rice Krispie mixture into small balls. Set on parchment paper. Add oil/butter to your hands after each ball.
• While the balls are still warm, gently press a Mini Rolo into the top of each pumpkin for the stem and add a green M&M beside it as the leaf. (Tip: If the pumpkins cool before you're finished, use the end of a thick marker or apple corer to make a small indent in the top for the chocolate to sit in.)
• Allow to cool until firm.
