Ingredients

  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 6 cups mini marshmallows
  • 6 Tbsp butter
  • Neon food coloring 3 different colors
  • Edible candy eyeballs
  • Food-safe gloves
  • Nonstick cooking spray

Instructions

  • Choose three different colors of food coloring. Melt the butter in a large pot over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth, about 3–5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Divide the melted marshmallow mixture evenly among three bowls. Add a different food coloring to each bowl and stir until you reach your desired colors.
  • Add 2 cups of crispy rice cereal to each bowl. Stir until the cereal is evenly coated with the colored marshmallow mixture.
  • Put on food-safe gloves and lightly spray them with nonstick cooking spray. Shape each mixture into equal-sized balls. Change gloves between colors to keep the colors from mixing.
  • Place the crispy rice balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. While they're still slightly warm and sticky, gently press a candy eyeball into each one.
  • Let the treats set before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Items such as neon food coloring and edible candy eyeballs may be purchased online at Amazon.com or bought at select craft and grocery stores.
