We’ve given the classic Rice Krispie treats a little spook and turned them into mummies! These brown-butter rice Krispie treat mummies are the perfect, easy Halloween treat to serve at any Halloween party. Kids and adults will love them!

We can’t get over how adorable these little mummies are. We also love this recipe… it’s truly the best Rice Krispie treats recipe! It’s made with brown butter which adds a lot of flavor. We used candy melts to turn them into mummies. My kids went crazy over these!

We got this cute idea from our mummy cupcakes and our mummy brownies. They’re always a hit and easy to make.

How to Make Rice Krispie Treats

They’re actually really easy to make! Our favorite way is to brown the butter first to give them even more flavor and nuttiness. We also add vanilla extract too.

Supplies

  • Large pot
  • Wooden spoon
  • Parchment paper
  • Rectangular cake pan
  • Measuring cups
bowl of marshmallows for making rice Krispie treats.

Ingredients

  • Rice Krispies
  • Marshmallows
  • Salted Butter
  • Vanilla extracts
  • White candy melts
  • Sprinkles eyes
  • Piping bag

Directions

  • Gather and measure all of the ingredients.
  • In a large pot, melt salted butter until golden brown.
  • The browning process is important as you want the butter to brown for the flavor of the Rice Krispie treats.
  • Once the butter is melted, add in the vanilla extract.
  • On low heat, add in the marshmallows and coat them in butter by turning them with a wooden spoon.
  • The marshmallows will begin to melt as you stir.
  • Stir until they are fully melted like marshmallow cream.
  • Remove from heat and add in the Rice Krispies Cereal and stir until it’s very sticky and blends together.

  • The absolute best and the only way to press the mixture into the cake pan is by using parchment paper. It doesn’t stick the marshmallow mixture and you can easily press down firmly getting an even layer of Rice Krispies.

My little boy loved this part! I like seeing his chubby little hand pressing the parchment paper.

The best way to cut Rice Krispie Treats

Letting the Rice Krispie treats sit for an hour to cool is key for cutting them. This will make it much easier to get a knife through the treats.

Use a buttered knife to slice down the center of the pan and then cut rectangles. You will want to eat them ALL so restrain!

The messier you make the bandages the better! They don’t have to be perfect, they look better when they’re a crossed and random too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make Rice Krispie Treats the same day?

They are best the day they’re made, but if you need the extra time to make them into mummies, you can make them the day before. Just seal them tightly and store on a counter, room temperature.

How long do homemade Rice Krispie treats last?

If they are sealed airtight, they can last up to three days at room temperature. They can also be frozen for up to six weeks.

Rice Krispie Treats Variations

Change it up and add different flavored marshmallows, like strawberry! Or use chocolate Rice Krispies to make them, you can also add peanut butter and different extracts as well. There are so many variations you can do, just be creative!
