Start by making the Rice Krispie Monsters:

  • Line a large rectangular baking tin with greaseproof paper.
  • Melt the butter and mini marshmallows together in a large bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
  • Remove from the heat, then stir in the Rice Krispies and salt, coating them in the mixture.
  • Spoon into the baking tin and firmly press out into an even layer.
  • Set aside and leave to set for 1 hour, then lift out of the baking tin and slice into small rectangles.
  • Divide the icing sugar between three small bowls. Add a few drops of water to each to make a thick icing. Add a drop of food colouring to dye each bowl a different colour.
  • Spoon the icing over the top of each Rice Krispie rectangle and top with a googly eye. Leave to set.
  • Now make the white chocolate ghosts:

  • Spoon the melted white chocolate over the marshmallows. Place in the fridge to set for 30 minutes. Leave to set
  • Use a chocolate icing pen to draw two eyes and a ghost mouth onto each marshmallow. Set aside for now.
  • To make the raspberry ripple slime:

  • Combine the milk and raspberry ripple hot chocolate in a small bowl.
  • Pop in the microwave for 20 seconds and stir until smooth.
  • Stir in the corn flour to make a thick sauce. Set aside for now.
  • Now you’re ready to make the hot chocolate:

  • Warm the milk in a saucepan or in the microwave until piping hot.
  • Spoon the hot chocolate into your favourite mug and pour in the hot milk. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  • Top with squirty cream, raspberry ripple slime and your spooky treats!
