Total time: 
Serves: 9 large treats
 
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons butter (plus butter to grease the pan)
  • 1 (10 ounce) bag mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 3 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate (good quality melts best)
  • 1 (9 count) package Marshmallow Ghost Peeps
Instructions
  1. Butter a 9 X 9 square pan and set it aside.
  2. Melt the 3 tablespoons butter in a large pan or dutch oven. Stir in the marshmallows over medium heat until they are melted completely.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cereal with a rubber spatula. Stir and turn the mix over in the pan until everything is evenly incorporated (no big pockets of marshmallow), and then turn it out into the prepared pan.
  4. PRESSSSS the mixture into the pan as firmly as you can. The more you press, the crispier the treats.
  5. In a small saucepan over medium low heat melt the chocolate, stirring almost constantly to prevent burning. Scrape all the chocolate out onto the top of the treats and spread like frosting all the way across to the edges.
  6. Place all 9 of the Ghost Peeps on top, spaced evenly across.
  7. Let everything cool (I like to refrigerate mine so they set up faster), slice into 9 pieces, and serve.
