What a clever idea and who doesn't love Rice Krispy treats right? With the holidays coming upon us this recipe is perfect for each occasion and with a little help of food coloring, the possibilities are virtually endless. Halloween is almost here...it would be really cute to shape your treat like a pumpkin and maybe incorporate some candy corn or Reese's pieces.

These are perfect for making with kids. They look great and taste even better!

These would be a great activity for the preschoolers in my home daycare. The children can make a few, so some extras cam go home with them in a cellophane treat bag. Otherwise, their parents won't know the fun they had that day!
