Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 10 ounce bag marshmallows
  • 1 box vanilla instant pudding mix (3.4 ounce)
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice mix
  • 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Toppings

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips (melted)
  • Sprinkles, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line a 9-inch square baking pan with foil and grease the foil with butter using the butter wrapper or alternatively use parchment paper. Set aside to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add marshmallows and stir continuously until fully melted, then reduce heat to low to avoid burning.
  3. Add Pudding Mix and Pumpkin Spice: Remove the pot from heat. Quickly stir in the vanilla instant pudding mix and pumpkin pie spice until well combined, creating a flavorful base.
  4. Incorporate Cereal: Fold in the Rice Krispies cereal gently but thoroughly to coat all pieces in the marshmallow-spice mixture.
  5. Press Mixture into Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Press down gently to create an even layer, being careful not to press too hard to maintain a soft texture.
  6. Add Toppings: Spread the melted white chocolate evenly over the top of the treats. Immediately sprinkle with colorful sprinkles before the chocolate sets to decorate.
  7. Set and Serve: Allow the treats to set at room temperature for about 1 hour until the chocolate hardens. Cut into squares and enjoy your festive pumpkin spice treats.

Notes

  • Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture and melting quality.
  • Adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice according to your taste preference.
  • For a firmer treat, press the mixture a little more firmly into the pan.
  • If white chocolate is unavailable, substitute with vanilla almond bark or regular chocolate chips.
  • Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days for optimal freshness.
