12 bars
- Serves:
- 12
ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1⁄4 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 (10 ounce) bag mini marshmallows, plus one cup
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch allspice
- 1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 6 cups puffed rice cereal
directions
- Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish (or a smaller dish — see Note below).
- In a heavy saucepan or Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add the pumpkin puree and continue to cook until it is warmed through. Fold in 10 ounces of the marshmallows, stirring frequently until almost completely melted. Stir in vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and salt, and remove from heat.
- Allow the marshmallow mixture to cool 10 minutes; fold in the remaining cup of marshmallows. Continue to cool the mixture for another 20 to 25 minutes until it is room temperature (failure to cool the mixture will result in soggy rice crispy treats.) Add the puffed rice cereal and stir, using a silicone spatula, until combined.
- Press the mixture into the greased rectangular baking dish. Let set for 30 minutes before cutting and serving.

Even though I am still young (25) Life experince has aged me alot.
I learned to cook at both of my grandmother's knees (One southern American, one southern Irish) when I was about five. By ten I started collecting cookbooks and experinmenting on my own.
As a latch key kid I cooked for my four younger brothers and sisters.
My mom ran a small deli before she died when I was 17 so alot of my recies debuted there.
Now I run my own catering Buisness.
I am married to a wnderful man for five years now. I am a six year old daughter, sons who are four and three.
We are also raising my 14 year old sister and nine Year old stepsister and have a 16 year old foster daughter, all of which love cooking with me.
I am writing a cookbook with the hopes that when I pass I can leave my recipes for them
My cookbook collection has now reached over 1200.
Thank you for trying and reviewing my recipes..
