Ingredients
3 tbsp
butter
6 cups
KELLOGG’S® RICE KRISPIES® cereal
1 pkg
(5 oz.) strawberry and grape candy pieces
24
candy eyes ( 1 cm.)
2 tbsp
strawberry ready-to-spread frosting
12
small hot cinnamon candies
24
soft and chewy red licorice candies with hard candy shell
Instructions
Step 1
Microwave butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 45 sec. or until melted. Add marshmallows; toss to evenly coat. Microwave 1-1/2 min. or until marshmallows are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 45 sec.
Step 2
Add cereal and strawberry and grape candies; mix well.
Step 3
Use moistened hands to shape cereal mixture into 12 balls.
Step 4
Spoon frosting into small resealable plastic bag. Cut small piece off one bottom corner of bag. Use to squeeze 3 small dots of frosting onto each cereal ball to attach 2 candy eyes, then 1 cinnamon candy for the nose. Gently press 2 chewy red licorice candies into the top of each ball for the ears.
Note; Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray to help prevent the cereal mixture from sticking to your hands when you roll it into the balls.
