Candy Corn Rice Krispy Treats

Ingredients

  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 3 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 4 drops yellow food coloring, divided
  • 3 drops red food coloring

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat marshmallow, butter and vanilla over medium-low heat until melted and well combined, about 3 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, combine rice cereal, pour marshmallow mixture over cereal and stir to combine.
  3. Divide cereal mixture between 3 large bowls. Wearing food-safe gloves, mix 2 drops of yellow food coloring by hand into 1 bowl of the cereal; set aside. Mix 2 drops of yellow and the red food coloring together with another bowl of rice cereal; set aside.
  4. Divide the 2½-cup/600 mL Medium Shallow Rectangular Freeze-It® PLUS container visually into thirds, lengthwise. Fill each third of the container with each color of the rice cereal mixture, pressing firmly into place, to create a white strip, orange strip and yellow strip.
  5. Refrigerate until firm. Unmold onto a cutting board and cut diagonally into triangles. Place in festive cellophane bags for the holidays.
