How to Make the Rice Krispie Treat Mixture
Step 1: The base for our Halloween Rice Krispie Treats Bites is our Best Ever Rice Krispie Treat Recipe which we have adjusted and perfected over the years until it is now absolutely the best Rice Krispie Treat recipe we have ever tasted. You can find all the directions you’ll need to make these delicious treats right here.
How to Color the Rice Krispie Treat Mixture
Step 2: We made our Halloween Rice Krispie Bites in three different Halloween colors … Orange, Green and Purple. You will need to make three different batches of Rice Krispie Treats, one for each color. For each color of Rice Krispie Treat Bite make a 3 cup batch of Rice Krispie Treat mixture (3 Tbsp. Butter/3 Cups Mini Marshmallows/3 Cups Cereal). Add the food coloring BEFORE you add the Rice Krispie Cereal.
For purple:
5 drops of Pink
1 drop of Blue
For green:
4 drops of Yellow
1 drop of Blue
For orange:
5 drops of Orange
How to Make the Rice Krispie Treat Bites
Step 3: To make the Rice Krispie Treat Bites, allow the mixture to cool enough so you can handle it but that it is still malleable. To get Rice Krispie Bites that were the same sized I measured .5 oz. of the mixture on my food scale and then used my hands to roll it into a ball. If the mixture is too sticky, rub your fingers with some butter.
Step 4: I was able to make 15 Rice Krispie Treat Bites from this 3 cup batch of Rice Krispie Treat Mixture.
Step 5: Allow the Halloween Rice Krispie Bites to cool before you store them. This is a super fun Halloween treat and you can make it well ahead. Rice Krispie Treats freeze up great in an air-tight container. They are so fun and colorful and delicious. Enjoy!
