Have a look at the all the goodies we recently received from Kellogg’s; we’re going to use them to make some yummy and scary Halloween treats for family and friends. If you have little ones at home, this is a simple, delicious and inexpensive way to involve them and share some Halloween love!
My “little pumpkins” are now “big pumpkins” but that doesn’t mean we still can’t have Halloween fun by making some tempting little treats!
For these treats we made the classic, original, no-bake squares using the recipe found on the Kellogg’s site.
After mixing the square ingredients together we piled it on a parchment lined sheet pan and smoothed them out evenly with a buttered spatula. {buttering the spatula made it a breeze to smooth the squares}
We then proceeded to cut out some cute little bats and pumpkins {we buttered the inside of the cutters too} as well as some square shapes to decorate using some cute candies.
The finished product was some delightful Halloween treats for my daughter to take to work and share with her colleagues.
Even though kids love these treats, adults love them too and I heard it took less than 30 minutes for these tasty treats to be gobbled up by some “big pumpkins”.
