We all love the classic Rice Krispies treat. But for the Holidays we wanted to make our homestyle version with something extra special, pumpkin spice. It gives our Holiday rice krispie treats a wonderful cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger flavor. If you really want to treat yourself make up some homemade eggnog too.

Decorating your Holiday rice krispie treats
With a simple drizzle of your favorite frosting, you can decorate these Holiday rice krispie teats how you want. Use a piping bag or even a Ziploc bag with the corner cut to size, then the rice krispie treats become a canvas for your imagination. You can add colorful sprinkles to perhaps some melted chocolate. You can use a flavored glaze or just keep them plain. This is what makes Rice Krispies treats magic in a pan.
The ghost edition is done by adding the googly eyes. For more fun Halloween treats check out our Halloween pretzels, Mummy dogs, and Halloween cinnamon rolls.
