Ingredients
Scale
- 10 oz large marshmallows (mini marshmallows work too)
- 8 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- ¼ cup butter
- ½ cup marshmallow fluff
- 5–8 drops green food coloring
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 18 large candy eyes
- 9 small Tootsie Rolls
- ½ cup black or brown icing
Instructions
- Melt the Base: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add marshmallows and marshmallow fluff, stirring until completely smooth.
- Make it Green: Stir in 5–8 drops of green food coloring until evenly tinted. Add more for a bolder Frankenstein green.
- Mix it Up: In a large bowl, combine the marshmallow mixture with Rice Krispies. Work quickly, it sets fast!
- Shape the Heads: Press mixture evenly into a greased 9×13 dish. Chill for 15 minutes, then cut into 3×4-inch rectangles.
- Add Hair: Melt chocolate chips with vegetable oil in 30-second microwave bursts, stirring between each. Dip the top inch of each treat into chocolate for Frankenstein’s hair. Let set.
- Monster Face Time: Use icing to attach candy eyes and draw a mouth. For bolts, cut Tootsie Rolls in half and attach to sides with icing.
- Set & Serve: Let icing set before serving.
Notes
Pro Tips: Lightly butter hands or spatula to prevent sticking. Extra green gel food coloring can enhance the color. Make a day ahead for convenience.
