Ingredients:
– 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal
– 10 oz of marshmallows
– 3 tbsp of butter
– Orange and yellow food coloring
– Cooking spray
Instructions:
1. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir continuously until they are completely melted and well combined with the butter.
2. Divide the marshmallow mixture into three separate bowls. Keep the largest portion in the saucepan and transfer smaller portions into the two additional bowls.
3. Add a few drops of orange food coloring to one of the bowls and stir until the color is evenly distributed. Repeat this step with yellow food coloring for another bowl, leaving the remaining marshmallow mixture uncolored.
4. Add 2 cups of Rice Krispies cereal to each bowl, one at a time, and mix until well combined.
5. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Press the uncolored Rice Krispies mixture into the bottom of the dish, creating an even layer.
6. Next, gently press the orange Rice Krispies mixture on top of the uncolored layer, forming the middle section of the candy corn shape.
7. Finally, press the yellow Rice Krispies mixture on top of the orange layer to complete the candy corn look.
8. Allow the Candy Corn Rice Krispies Treats to cool and set for about 30 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy!
