    Spooky Halloween Rice Krispies Treats

    These Spooky Halloween Rice Krispies Treats are super easy to make and will be a hit with all the kids at Halloween!

    I love Halloween as I can watch all the horror movie marathons I want. My wife doesn't like Halloween so much because it's the day after her birthday and she hates horror movies.

    This is one of those kid-friendly recipes you can make with your kiddos right before Halloween. I decided to make Frankenstein this year but as you can see, this recipe is so easy and versatile you can make just about anything by making different forms and using different colors of food coloring.
