Gather the kids to help create their own Rice Krispy Treat Mummies this Halloween season.
Ingredients needed:
- Butter
- Mini marshmallows
- Rice Krispies cereal
- White chocolate or white melting chocolate
- Candy eye balls, mini chocolate chips or mini m&ms
Directions:
- Grease or butter a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. In a large saucepan, melt the butter on low heat and then add the mini marshmallows. Stir together until the marshmallows are completely melted. Keep an eye on your mixture to make sure it doesn't get burnt. This will result in hard rice Krispy treats.
- Remove from heat and add in Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until well combined and the cereal is evenly coated in the marshmallow mixture.
- Evenly press the rice krispie treats mixture into the pan. Use a buttered spatula or butter wax paper to prevent your hands from getting too sticky. Let treats cool and harden for a few minutes.

Assemble your mummies:
- Use a sharp knife and cut the Rice Krispie treats into 10 rectangular pieces. Place white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave safe bowl, and melt in the microwave according to package directions.
- Dab the back of each eye ball with white chocolate and top on to the Rice Krispie Treat to create the look for a mummy, repeat on all 10 mummies.
- Place the melted white chocolate into a ziplock bag and cut a small slit in the corner. Drizzle the chocoalte across the top of the mummies in a random pattern to look like a mummy wrap. Repeat with additional rice krispie treats and allow the chocolate to harden and set.
