Time 1h15m

Yield makes about 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for buttering the pan
One 10-ounce bag mini marshmallows
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
8 cups puffed chocolate cereal, such as Cocoa Puffs
2 cups crushed pretzels
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon coconut oil

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil leaving a 2-inch overhang on the two short ends. Lightly coat the foil with butter.
  • Melt the butter in a large pot set over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until the marshmallows melt, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and a pinch of salt and then the cereal and pretzels until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and press into an even layer. Set aside at room temperature until cooled and firm, about 30 minutes.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 12 to 18 mummy treats

Number Of Ingredients 10

Cooking spray
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 10-ounce bag mini marshmallows
Pinch of kosher salt
4 cups cinnamon cereal squares (such as Cinnamon Toast Crunch)
3 cups crisp rice cereal
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon meringue powder
Black candy-coated chocolates, for decorating
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the treats: Line a 9-inch square baking dish with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides; lightly coat with cooking spray. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and salt and cook, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in both cereals until coated, then press into the prepared pan. Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the icing: Whisk 2 cups confectioners' sugar and the meringue powder in a large bowl until combined. Add 4 tablespoons water and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and the consistency of a thick glaze. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons water if the icing is too thick. Cover with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap and set aside until ready to use.
  • Lift the treats out of the pan using the foil overhang, then cut into rectangles. Insert a lollipop stick into each. Brush an even layer of icing on the cereal treats with a pastry brush. Add the remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and the ground cinnamon to the remaining icing; beat with the mixer until thick and pipable. Transfer to a small resealable plastic bag and snip a corner. Pipe thin lines on the cereal treats to look like bandages and add 2 chocolate candies for eyes. Let set, about 15 minutes.
