Rice Crispy Treats For Thanksgiving
I love the Holiday season. It gives me a reason to create yummy recipes to share with my family and friends instead of having them all hang around my house packing the pounds on me. I added yummy pumpkin ingredients to make these rice marshmallow treats a little more festival for the Fall season! I think these rice crispy treats for Thanksgiving will be perfect? Do you like Pumpkin flavored dishes? Which ones are your favorite?
Pumpkin Cranberry Rice Crispy Treats
Ingredients
- 6 cups mini marshmallows
- 6 cups rice cereal
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- a handful of dried apple slices
- ¼ cup of pumpkin spice almonds (I used Planters)
- 2 Tablespoons Country Crock Pumpkin Spice Butter
- silicone molds
- candy quick or chocolate chips for melting
Instructions
- Microwave the marshmallows in a bowl for 1 minute
- Mix in the butter
- Mix in the remaining ingredients (I butter my spoon first to keep it from sticking)
- Melt the candy quick or chocolate in the microwave for one minute (It will keep its form, but will soften as you stir)
- Pour a layer of chocolate in the bottom of the mold
- pack the rice batter in tightly and mold the tops to be flat (use butter on your hands)
- refrigerate for four hours

Those are the fanciest treats I have ever seen, you put my odd shaped bars to shame. Now I have a question, why did no one ever tell me to butter my spoon to keep from sticking? Seriously, you might be a genius!
Well Jen I sent you a psychic message the last time you made them, but you did not answer “my call” lol
now THAT is a thanksgiving edible craft I can get into! I love the added almonds and fruit. I never would have thought to add those to rice crispy treats!
It just made it so much better!
Those look fantastic! I love craisins.
These are so cute! I wonder if I can make a vegetarian version for my family. I think the kids would LOVE making them.
There isn’t any meat unless you mean vegan..lol Sadie
