Get ready for one of the cutest ideas for your Halloween party!  These Green Monsters were a huge hit at my party.  Even with a buffet full of cupcakes and cakes, my guests seemed to gravitate to the plates that showcased these little guys.  They are also very simple, which is right up my alley!

Monster Rice Krispie Treats

4 tbsp butter
1 bag of mini marshmallows
6 cups rice cereal
5-10 drops green food coloring (depending on how green you would like your monsters to be)
“eyeball” candy (available at Micheal’s or Jo-Ann’s in the baking section)

1. Microwave butter in a large bowl for 30 seconds.

2. Add Marshmallows to bowl and stir

3. Microwave mixture for 45 seconds.  Stir and add food coloring.  Microwave an additional 45 seconds.

4. Stir marshmallow mixture well and add rice cereal.

5. Use two spoons to create “lumps” of cereal on wax paper. Add monster eyes.

6. Allow to harden and enjoy!
