More About This Recipe

  • October’s plenty busy. The kids’ school assignments are getting harder, football season’s in full swing and then there’s Halloween. You’re either making costumes, buying costumes or reinventing old ones. (Last year’s pirate, with bandana and fake earring, is this year’s gypsy!) Add in repeated trips to the store to buy candy, pumpkins, the pumpkin-carving tools you forgot when you bought the pumpkins and the ever-increasing vats of hair product you need to give your youngest son the perfect Bieber swoosh, and who has time to bake for the latest school fundraiser? No one. So don’t. Make something easy, on the stovetop, that takes less than 30 minutes. I speak, of course, of Monster "Mash"mallow Cereal Treats. Made with melted marshmallows, Count Chocula, Frankenberry and Booberry cereal, what’s not to like? And with Halloween upon us, what’s more seasonally appropriate than a “monster” cereal? Your kids will love these monster-themed cereal treats. Happy Halloween!
