Why You'll Love this Recipe

If you need quick and easy festive treats for Halloween this year, these Halloween rice crispy treats made with Peeps are perfect!

These delicious treats come together in just a few minutes, and they're always a huge hit with kids and adults alike.

They're even great to get the kids into the kitchen to help you make them. They have so much fun mixing the melted Halloween-shaped Peeps with the cereal.

What are Halloween Peeps?

Peeps are a marshmallow treat that have been a staple during Easter time and are usually shaped like chicks or bunnies, but have recently started to make an appearance at other holidays including Halloween.

They come in a variety of Halloween shapes including pumpkins, ghosts, skeletons, and Frankenstein.

Where Can I Buy Halloween Peeps?

Ingredients to make Halloween Rice Krispie Treats.

Halloween Rice Krispie Treat Ingredients

*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.

Halloween Peeps: I used a combination of pumpkin Peeps and Ghost Peeps because I liked the mixture of orange and white for these treats.

Rice Krispie Cereal: I recommend using the name brand Kellogg's Rice Krispie cereal and not the store brand puffed rice cereal. The texture was totally different with store bought because the puffed rice was more flat than the name brand. Use regular Rice Krispies for the best flavor.

Butter: You can use either salted or unsalted butter.

Halloween Sprinkles: These festive sprinkles are totally optional, but I think they add a nice touch and make the treats look even more festive. I found some cute sprinkles that had candy eyes!

Can I use regular marshmallows instead of Peeps?

Yes, you can! If you don't have Halloween Peeps or can't find them, you can use regular or mini marshmallows. The treats will still be delicious.
