INSTRUCTIONS

  • Grease a 28×18cm (11×7 inch) baking tin with some butter/margarine before lining with greaseproof paper. Set aside.
  • In a large pan, melt the butter/margarine over a low heat.
  • Add the marshmallows to your pan and allow them to melt, stirring occasionally to prevent them from burning or sticking.
  • Once your marshmallows have completely melted, add your food colouring and mix through. Remove from the heat and add your Rice Krispies.
  • Mix in your Rice Krispies as quickly as possible, before transferring the mixture to your prepared tin. The mixture will be sticky, so work fast. Using the back of a spoon, press the mixture into the tin - greasing the spoon with a little excess butter/margarine will also stop the mixture from sticking.
  • Allow your rice crispy squares to set for a couple of hours. Once set, cut to your desired size. Have a sheet of greaseproof paper on hand for decorating also.
  • Melt the chocolate over a bain-marie or in short bursts in a microwave. Dip your rice crispy squares into the chocolate, letting the excess chocolate drip off, before transferring them to your piece of greaseproof paper.
  • Using a little dab of chocolate, stick the edible eyes onto your rice crispy square. Add a mouth and any additional features by drizzling a little chocolate with a small spoon or a cocktail stick.
  • Allow the chocolate to set completely before enjoying.
