Candy Corn Rice Krispy Treats

I saw these the other day on my Tupperware site, and thought oh me there are going to be some really happy little people out there.  And then I thought all those folks that aren't fans of Candy Corn might like these too ... 

I can see these being a big hit at a Halloween party ... or just for your kids lunches!


Yield: 8
Serving Size: 1 slice (about ¾ cup)
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. 
  4. Wearing food-safe gloves, mix 2 drops of yellow food coloring by hand into 1 bowl of the cereal; set aside. 
  5. Mix 2 drops of yellow and the red food coloring together with another bowl of rice cereal; set aside.
  6. Divide the 2½-cup Medium Shallow Rectangular Freeze-It® PLUS container visually into thirds, lengthwise. 
  7. 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.
  8. Refrigerate until firm. 
  9. Unmold onto a cutting board and cut diagonally into triangles.
  10.  Place in festive cellophane bags for the holidays.
