I'm trying to find the website for halloween marshmellow treats for post cereal pebbles.?

Question

I saw this on a commercial not too long ago. I want to do a bake sale for my son's school that has a halloween theme. And this commercial had a website you could go to that had rice crispy treats in a halloween them but it wasn't Kellogg's cereal it was Post Pebbles I believe. Can you help?

Answer 1

Postcereal.com

Answer 2

I know the recipe generally.

1/4 cup margarine
1 10oz bag marshmallows (OR go by 4 cups mini-marshmallows or 40 big ones)
5 cups cereal
a cup or so of fun add-ins (if you use chocolate anything, freeze them thoroughly first!)

Melt the margarine, add the marshmallows and stir as they melt, too. Let it boil for a couple of minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully stir in the cereal. Just before turning out into a greased 9x13 cake pan, stir in anything you're adding in. Press firmly into the cake pan and flatten with a rubber scraper. Let cool about 10-15 minutes, then cut it into bars. Leave it in the pan to finish cooling. Then lift the bars out carefully and package for sale.

Instead of pressing the hot goo into a pan, you can grease your hands lightly with margarine and form into balls or discs. (If your hands are heat-sensitive, just use the pan method.) If you make discs, you can put a stick into the bottom before they harden completely; that way you'll have marshmallow treat 'pops.' Balls can be wrapped in Halloween print plastic wrap or clear treat bags and tied off with a bit of curling ribbon.

8 oz. soft cream cheese
1/4 cup orange juice

Roll out the dough about 1/4" thick. Use a 3"-diameter drinking glass to cut out circles from the dough.

Grease a cookie sheet. Place the cookies on it and bake at 350 degrees for the amount of time suggested on the package.

Spoon the cream cheese into a bowl. Add the orange juice and blend well.

RICE KREEPY EYES

Make a batch of regular rice krispies treats. But before putting the mix in the pan, roll the mix into one inch balls instead of spreading it out for squares. Cool normally. When they're done use a small dab of icing and add a single candy dot to each ball. Use red frosting to add 'veins' along the eyeball if you like. Kids love getting these for Halloween! :)

FROZEN JACK-O'-LANTERNS

Cut off tops of 12 navel oranges. Gently hollow out pulp (reserve for another use), leaving a thick shell; hollow pulp out of cut-off tops, too. Cut jack-o'-lantern faces into each orange. Pack scoops of dark chocolate or fudge ice cream into shells (avoid letting ice cream ooze out through eyes or mouth). Cut a hole in top of each orange. Set tops back on, over ice cream, and insert a cinnamon-stick stem through the hole. Place in freezer for at least 3 hours, or until serving time.

Amy sent it this great idea for EDIBLE SKELETONS!! Thanks, Amy!

I used to teach pre-K kids and every Halloween we would make a skeleton out of various vegetables. (Also makes a good party activity) For the head, use a head of lettuce with a hole carved out to hold some kind of dip. Then for the other body parts we used veggies like cherry tomatoes for elbows, sliced cucumbers and squash for the spine, mini carrots for fingers, etc... Just let your imagination run wild! The kids had lots of fun.

WIZARD'S HAT

Dip sugar cones into melted chocolate (this melting can be done in microwave or pot on stove-low heat). Put on waxed paper to harden. Before chocolate hardens, use colored sugar with stencils to make stars and moon on cones. In each child's dish, put a scoop of ice cream and place wizard's hat on top. Decorate the ice cream to represent wizard's face with chow mein noodles or chocolate sprinkles for hair, and small candies for facial features. Thin licorice candy could be used to make glasses.

MORE IDEAS FOR HALLOWEEN PUNCH

1. Freeze green punch in gelatin mold along with plastic spiders, eyeballs, etc. Float frozen mold in punch bowl.

2. Use rubber gloves (washed thoroughly) to make ghoulish ice shapes for your punch. Just fill gloves with water and freeze for a day. Run water over them to loosen ice from glove and add to punch.
