Fall Colored Krispie Leaves
{A Pinterest Recipe}


Who can resist these cute and
festive fall colored rice krispie "leaves"?


I saw these fall colored leaves on Pinterest.
The minute I saw them, I knew I had to make them.
This recipe is from a wonderful food/craft blog,
Two Sisters Crafting
Many of their ideas are on Pinterest and
with good reason. They come up with some of
the craftiest ideas and some really great recipes.

Go on...check it out...
you know you want too:)




Since there are so many wonderful recipes on Pinterest,
we've decided that twice a month,
we'll feature a new and different recipe.
A recipe that we have found on Pinterest,
fell in love with and just had to make.
(like these marshmallow krispie leaves)

What we will do is under "On the Menu Today" *See Above*
we'll type the "title of the recipe"
under the title of the recipe,
we'll put: {A Pinterest Recipe}
This way (you) our readers,
will know that the recipe was found on Pinterest...


Who knows,
maybe you've even seen the recipe on Pinterest and
have always wanted to make it yourself or
maybe you have already made the recipe...
In that case, you can leave us a comment telling us all about it.


Of course, we will give full recipe credit,
with a link (and permission if necessary),
to the blog/blogs or "owner" of the recipe,
that was given/found on pinterest.
(I hope that makes sense..)




Fall Colored Krispie Leaves

Ingredients
  • 12 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 12 cups mini marshmallows, divided
  • 12 cups rice krispie cereal, divided
  • few drops red gel food coloring
  • few drops orange gel food coloring
  • few drops purple gel food coloring
  • few drops brown gel food coloring
  • fall colored sprinkles
Cooking Directions
  1. Lightly butter a large baking sheet. (12 x 17) Set aside.
  2. For each color use: 3 tablespoons butter, 3 cups mini marshmallows, and 3 cups rice krispie cereal.
  3. For each color: Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan. Add 3 cups mini marshmallows, stirring until completely melted. Remove from heat, add a few drops of gel food coloring, until you reach desired color, stirring constantly. Stir in 3 cups rice krispie cereal, stirring until cereal is completely coated.
  4. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Press mixture firmly into pan, in a row, with a buttered spatula, using only a quarter of the pan. (All four colors of krispie treats will fill the pan.) Repeat until all colors are used and pan has 4 rows of colored rice krispie mixture.
  5. Set aside for 15 minutes. Using a leaf shaped cookie cutter, cut out as many leaves as possible.(I got 3 leaves of each color, 12 leaves total.)
  6. You can easily combine the remaining rice krispie scraps and cut out several multi-colored leaves.
