As soon as they see these pumpkin pops, your little ghouls’ and goblins’ faces will light right up.
Ingredients:
1 package (10-1/2 ounces) miniature marshmallows
3 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
red and yellow gel food coloring
6 cups rice krispies
wooden pop sticks
miniature chocolate, green and yellow tootsie roll midgees, as desired
miniature green apple airheads bars
black decorating gel or chocolate frosting, optional
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine marshmallows, butter and salt. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Remove from heat; tint orange with red and yellow food coloring. Stir in cereal.
2. With buttered hands, shape mixture into six pumpkins. Insert a wooden pop stick into each pumpkin.
3. Cut chocolate Tootsie Rolls crosswise in half; press one half into the top of each for stems. Cut AirHeads into thin strips; roll between hands to form vines. Press vines into pumpkins near stem. For leaves, roll out green Tootsie Rolls on waxed paper to 1/8-in. thickness. With kitchen scissors, cut out leaves and attach to vines.
4. Add Jack-o'-lantern faces using decorating gel or additional Tootsie Roll cutouts made with yellow and chocolate Tootsie Rolls. Yield: 6 servings.
