Ingredients

  • 1 jar marshmallow cream 7 ounce
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup pure pumpkin canned
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 package large marshmallows 16 ounce
  • 8 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 16 ounce white chocolate melted
  • 3 Tablespoons Sprinkles optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl combine marshmallow cream with espresso powder. Set aside.
  3. In a large saucepan, add butter and pumpkin. Heat over medium high heat and bring mixture to a boil, while stirring constantly. Continue boiling for about 2 minutes, allowing all the excess liquid from the pumpkin to cook off.
  4. Add pumpkin pie spice and marshmallow to saucepan. Reduce heat to low, and stir until smooth and all the marshmallows are melted. Remove from heat.
  5. Fold in the Rice Krispies cereal. Pour half the cereal mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Press gently into baking dish using a small piece of parchment paper. Spread marshmallow cream mixture over first layer of cereal using an offset spatula. Top with the remaining cereal mixture, pressing gently with an extra piece of parchment paper.
  6. Cover with plastic wrap and allow treats to set up firmly, about 2 hours. Once firm, remove treats from pan by lifting with the parchment paper. Place on a cutting board and make three vertical and three horizontal cuts. You will have 9 large squares. Cut each square in half from corner to corner, creating 18 triangles. Separate slightly on cutting board. Spread melted white chocolate over the top of each treat. Add sprinkles and/or a pinch of pumpkin pie spice to each treat. Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. ENJOY.

Notes

  • To help prevent them from being soggy, you're going to cook down your pumpkin puree with butter for several minutes until the excess liquid has burned off.
  • Then proceed by adding in your marshmallows and stirring until they are smooth. You'll want to add the cereal quickly and press half of the mixture into a parchment paper lined baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, you'll combine the ingredients for the marshmallow filling and then spread that over your first layer of krispies, followed by your remaining cereal mixture.
  • NOTE: Do not press these firmly into the pan. I use my fingers (which I butter lightly) to press my krispies GENTLY. The firmer you press, the dryer and harder they become. Trust me. I'm a krispie treat expert. I wear a badge.
