Pumpkin Spice Crisp Rice Treats: The Ultimate Fall Dessert

Fall is officially here, and obsession with all things pumpkin is in full swing.

If you saw our list of 5 amazing vegan pumpkin products, you’re aware that Dandies — purveyor of fabulous vegan marshmallows — makes a seasonal version of its classic marshmallow. When used to make a vegan version of this iconic crispy rice treat, the end result is pure bliss.

Here’s a recipe for pumpkin spice rice crisp treats, courtesy of the fine folks at Dandies:

Ingredients: 

• 1 10 oz bag of Dandies Marshmallows
• 2 Tbsp vegan margarine
• 5 cups crisp rice cereal
• 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground clove
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Instructions:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine Dandies, margarine and maple syrup. In 30-second intervals, with a quick stir between each, microwave until marshmallows are fully melted. Stir in spices. Mix in cereal and stir until evenly coated with marshmallow cream. Press mixture into a 9×9 pan. Once cool, cut into squares and enjoy. Recipe by Chelsie Jangord.

Now go enjoy a panful of these gooey, sweet treats. There’s no way you can eat just one.
