Ingredients
6
cups
Rice Krispies cereal
3
tbsp
butter
unsalted
10
oz
bag mini marshmallows
Red food coloring
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt butter in a large pot over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until smooth. Tint with red food coloring until pink.
Stir in cereal until evenly coated.
Scoop mixture onto tray with an ice cream scoop. Shape into ovals.
Use the back of a butter knife to press a line down the center of each oval to resemble a brain.
Mix red food coloring with a little water. Use a paintbrush to add “veins” on top of each brain.
Let set before serving.
Notes
Grease your hands to prevent sticking when shaping.
Adjust food coloring for a lighter or darker look.
Make ahead and store in an airtight container up to 2 days.
Try Cocoa Krispies for darker brains.
Paint veins with candy melts instead of food coloring if desired.
