Preparation

Step 1

Melt the butter in a large sauce pan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir constantly until melted. Remove from heat.

Add approximately 4 drops of red food coloring and 2 drop yellow food coloring. Add until you have a nice bright orange color.

Mix in Rice Krispies. Form small balls into the shape of a pumpkin (Tip: Add Non-Stick Cooking Spray (Pam) or Crisco to your hands before forming your balls).

Cut Tootsie Roll in half and add a half into each pumpkin while still warm for the pumpkin stem.

Cut small leaves from the green portion of your Fruit Roll Up and place on top near the Tootsie Roll stem.
