Colorful Leaf Treats!


"For a colorful autumn snack, use leaf-shaped cookie cutters to create festive shapes."
These delicious little treats are great for the coldest autumn days!

"3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 (10 ounce) package marshmallows
6 cups Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®
Canned frosting or decorating gel."

"Directions:
In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
Add KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.
Using buttered spatula or wax paper evenly press mixture into 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan coated with cooking spray. Cool slightly. Using cookie cutters coated with cooking spray cut into leaf shapes. Decorate with frosting for leaf veins and outlines. Best if served the same day."

"Footnotes:
MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS:
In microwave-safe bowl heat butter and marshmallows on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Follow steps 2 and 3 above. Microwave cooking times may vary.

Diet, reduced calorie or tub margarine is not recommended.
Store no more than two days at room temperature in airtight container. To freeze, place in layers separated by wax paper in airtight container. Freeze for up to 6 weeks. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving."
