Butterscotch Rice Krispie Treats - Halloween Fun For Your Little Pumpkins! #RKHalloween

It's another rainy day here in Winnipeg, and quite cold outside too! So to keep the kids entertained, why not try a little Halloween themed baking project? These Butterscotch Rice Krispie Treats are just the ticket to happy kids and Halloween fun. Check out the recipe and what we did to celebrate the upcoming "holiday."

We had a great time putting these guys together -- and of course, eating them!  We inserted sticks into ours to make them into Rice Krispie pops, which always adds to the fun factor.  The butterscotch pudding really adds a unique flavor to the treats, making them extra yummy and a little special too.  The perfect (easy) activity for a rainy day!

Enjoy!
