10/29/2017 1 Comment Halloween TreatsHello and welcome to this week's blog. I am finally half way done! This week I made candy corn shaped Rice Krispie treats, and I donated them to my church’s annual pumpkin party. Since they were going to a party for younger kids I had to make sure that my treats would be very kid friendly. I started off by going to the store and getting my ingredients. This week I had to get every single ingredient because I didn’t have a single one at home, whereas last week I had almost every single ingredient I needed. After I went to the store I went home and started on my baking. I started baking on Wednesday this week. Normally I bake on the weekend so I don’t have to worry about time issues. However, I am going out of town this weekend, so I had to start so my treats would be ready for the party. To ensure that I wouldn’t run into a time issue I decided to split it up into a 2-day process. The first day all I had to do was melt the marshmallows and then add some orange food coloring to them. Afterwards, I mixed in the Rice Krispies and then let it harden and cool until the next day. On day two I had a harder task. I cut the treats into triangles and then rounded off the edges to make them have a more realistic look to them. This didn’t sound like a hard task, but it sure wasn’t easy. Afterwards, I heated up the chocolate and began dipping. I first did the milk chocolate and let it set and then I did the white. This task took me longer than I expected because I thought I could just dip it in and be done. However, I had to dip it in there and then use a spoon to get the chocolate covering everywhere it needed to be. The next day I packed them up and took them to my church. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend the pumpkin party, so I was not able to see who received them. I’m sure some little kid loved them though. Even though I don’t know exactly who they went to it still warms my heart to know they are going to a good cause. As always check out my pictures below! The link to the recipe is also below. It would be a great treat to make for an upcoming Halloween party. Thanks for stopping by. Link - https://pintsizedtreasures.com/chocolate-dipped-candy-corn-treats/
