These Halloween Rice Krispies Treats couldn’t be easier to make. Begin by preparing a batch of apple-spiced Rice Krispies Treats. The addition of apple spice in the basic Rice Krispies Treats makes these perfect for Fall treats.
Next, use cookies cutters in your favorite Halloween or Fall shapes (leaves would be fun too!) then let the children get creative by decorating their treats with an assortment of frosting and candies.
Party monsters were made with an assortment of cookie cutter shapes. A gingerbread man cookie cutter was used for a full-size monster, a skull cookie cutter for Frankenstein’s Bride, and basic cut squares for Frankenstein himself as well as a few of his closest monster-y friends! Leaf and pumpkin shaped treats would be a great addition too!
