Step-by-Step Instructions for Frankenstein Rice Krispie Bars
  1. Gather all your ingredients for the Frankenstein Rice Krispie Bars. Measure out 6 cups of Rice Krispies, 1 cup of marshmallows, and 3 tablespoons of butter, placing them within easy reach.
  2. In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Once melted, add 1 cup of marshmallows, stirring constantly until smooth, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and add 6 cups of Rice Krispies to the melted mixture. Stir gently to coat each piece evenly.
  4. Add a few drops of green food coloring to the mixture and stir until the color is evenly distributed.
  5. Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Pour the mixture into the dish, pressing down firmly with a spatula or your hands.
  6. Let it rest for about 30 minutes at room temperature to set properly.
  7. Once cooled, cut into squares or bars and top each with candy eyes, pressing gently into the surface.
