Hey guys it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies!
Today, I got so many emails saying that they loved the easy mode
Lego cake, so I wanted to make something else that was easy mode.
And I got so many requests to do something from Minecraft, specifically,
a Creeper! So today, we are gonna be making Mint Chocolate Chip Creeper
Rice Krispy Treats! They’re super easy, they only take like 10 minutes.
And here are the things you will need: Kelloggs Rice Krispies cereal, you’ll
need 5 cups of this cereal, baking spray, 3 tablespoons of butter,
1/2 a teaspoon of peppermint extract, green food coloring dye, a square
cookie cutter, this is 2-1/2 inches by 2-1/2 inches. 1 bag of mini
marshmallows, it’s a 10 ounce bag, and some chocolate candy melts.
I’m using the color black, but if you can’t find colored melts in the
color black, you can just melt regular chocolate. Like Hershey chocolates
or those little kiss chocolates, just any meltable chocolates.
Last but not least, 1 big rectangle baking pan. This is 13 by 9 inches.
The first thing that we’re gonna do is take your baking spray, and
spray the pan.
Ooop! It would be nice if it was pointed the right direction!
Now we’re gonna take all of our ingredients and head over to the stove,
and that’s where we’re gonna put everything together!
I just found a medium pot, put it on the stove, and I turned my burner to low.
And the first thing you’re gonna do is add 3 tablespoons of butter.
It’s actually not a lot of butter, 1 of those big sticks is only 8 ounces,
so this is a little 3 ounce.
And you’re gonna put it in the pot, we are gonna let the butter melt
completely to a low heat, it should only take about a minute, it doesn’t take
too long. Now that our butter is all melted, we are gonna add all
of the marshmallows! I’m just gonna cut this open, meep-meep-meep-meep-meep!
And dump ‘em in!
Once you dump the marshmallows in, we’re just gonna stir them until it all
becomes like, liquid and gooey. Yum-yum-yum!
The marshmallows melt pretty quickly on the heat, so this should only take
about a minute, it’s really easy.
Once the marshmallows are all melted, we are going to remove it from the heat,
put it onto a different burner, and then you’re going to add your peppermint
extract and a little bit of green food coloring dye.
Now we’re gonna add our 5 cups of Rice Krispies!
Now you’re gonna mix it all together, and just be sure to stir really gently!
After you’ve mixed in all the Rice Krispies treats, we are gonna put it in
the pan, it’s really really sticky!
Woo! There we go!
And now what you’re gonna do is take a piece of wax paper, put it on top,
and press down. So that it fills to the size of the pan.
Now that we got our Rice Krispy treats all done, we’re gonna put them in
the fridge and let them chill for about 30 minutes.
While our Rice Krispies are cooling off in the fridge, we are gonna make
our chocolate creeper faces!
The first thing that you’re gonna do, is I printed out 6 little Creeper faces,
These are about 2-1/2 inches by 2-1/2 inches, just like our square cookie
cutter. but you can do them any size that you want to do.
And I’m just gonna stick them down on top of this white cardboard and tape
them down with a little bit of scotch tape.
At the top, at the bottom! And now, you’re gonna take a piece of wax paper,
put it right on top, and tape it down. Just make sure it’s really flat…
There we go.
Now they’re all ready to put chocolate on top of.
In this plastic bag I have melted black candy melts, and this is a number
2 tip, and we’re just gonna trace out the little eyeballs and the face.
Once you have your basic shape, you can also use a little toothpick,
like this, and kind of jiggle it around, just to make the chocolate
a little smoother.
When your chocolate Creeper faces are all done, you’re just gonna set them
aside and let them cool, because the chocolates still a little bit hot.
I just took the Rice Krispies out of the fridge and I flopped them onto
this flat surface. And what we’re gonna do is you’re gonna take
your square 2-1/2 inch by 2-1/2 inch cookie cutter,
and just cut out all the shapes!
If you don’t have the cookie cutter, don’t worry, you can just take a sharp
cutting knife and just cut the squares by eyeballing it.
Line it up, push it down… Ow! Geez, maybe I need some muscles here!
Ta-da! Our first Creeper! You’re just gonna pop it out and continue
to cut the squares throughout the whole thing!
Now that we’ve got all of our Rice Krispies cut out into little squares,
like so. We are gonna take the chocolate Creeper faces and put ‘em on top.
I’ve cut out 1 of the little faces. I just like to do it this way because
it’s a little bit easier, and chocolates really easy to work with.
You just peel it off and place it on top of your Rice Krispy wherever
you’d like.
Just kind of eyeballing it.
Aw! Look at our little Creeper!
He’s so cute!
Now we’re gonna do this to the rest of our Rice Krispy Treatssssssssssssss.
See, because that was the Creeper Noise!
Ta-da! Here are the Mint Chocolate Chip Creeper Rice Krispy Treats!
They look so cute! They look just like Creepers ssssshould!
I hope you guys liked ‘em these were so easy to make. They only take
about 10 minutes to bake, and then an additional 10 minutes to do the little
chocolate faces. So, thanks for suggesting it.
And if you have any ideas for any Nerdy Nummies, please let me know,
leave me a comment down below and I will do my best to make it happen!
OK, thanks you guys, bye-bye!
