happy 1st day of fall!
here is a yummy treat to get the season started off right.
the recipe i found for this on pinterest is here. originally this recipe was for brown butter pumpkin spice treats. however, browning butter is way to complicated for me. the directions make it sound easy enough, but i know me and i am sure to screw it up. so, i just skipped that step.
let me just tell you that these are so freaking good. i didn't even eat 1/8 of a square and i was blown away by it's yummy goodness. and since i am trying to change my eating habits in hopes of losing weight, so unfortunately that little sample may be all i enjoy.
but it will be hard.
pumpkin spice rice krispie treats
3 tsp. butter
4 cups mini marshmallows (or one 10 oz. bag of the regular size)
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
6 cups rice krispies
sprinkles
so basically, all you do is make rice krispie treats like the original recipe that comes on the rice krispies box (go here if you don't know it), and when it is time to add the marshmallows, add the pumpkin pie spice. once you have poured the rice krispie treat mix into a container to set, you put on the spinkles.
i pretty much change the sprinkles for whatever season or holiday it is and my kids think i am a rice krispie treat genius. this is our first time trying the pumpkin spice flavor, so i am pretty excited to see what they think.
try them, you will thank me!
oh, and if you are not following me on pinterest you can do that here.
