Cocoa Pebbles Spider Crispy Treats

This is a sponsored post to share Cocoa Pebbles Spider Crispy Treats.

Halloween is almost upon us, but there’s still time to make a batch of some fun spooky treats. And I have just the recipe to share that turns a box of Cocoa Pebbles into Spider Crispy Treats! You’ll never look at your cereal the same way again!

These Cocoa Pebbles Spider Crispy Treats are a trick and a treat, because there’s no rule saying you need one or another. There’s room for both when they’re just this good and easy! I’m looking forward to whipping up a batch myself.

First, form the Cocoa Pebbles into Crispy Treats by melting marshmallows in butter, then stirring into the Cocoa Pebbles. Press into a prepared pan and let cool. Then, use a round cookie cutter to cut treats into circles. Use mini pretzel sticks for the legs, mini marshmallows for the eyes, and Tootsie Rolls for it’s triangle-shaped fangs.

You won’t need to run in fear from these spiders!
