Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 bag (10.5 oz) miniature marshmallows (5 1/2 cups)
  • 6 cups original Cheerios™ cereal, slightly crushed
  • 1 cup candy corn
  • 2 tubs (12 oz) Betty Crocker™ Whipped Vanilla Frosting
  • 1/2 teaspoon yellow paste food color
  • 3/4 teaspoon orange paste food color
  • 1 tablespoon white, orange and yellow candy sprinkles

Steps

    Add marshmallows; toss until coated. Microwave uncovered on High about 1 minute 30 seconds, stirring after 45 seconds, until mixture can be stirred smooth. Immediately add cereal and candy corn; stir until evenly coated.

    In small bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups frosting and yellow food color. In another small bowl, mix 1 1/4 cups frosting and orange food color. Leave remaining frosting white.
