YOU’VE BEEN BOO’ED
{and Salted Carmel Rice Krispie Treats}
We started this Halloween tradition when we lived in Logan – and we haven’t been very good at doing it every single year, but it’s one of my favorites.
I love watching the kids get excited about leaving treats + sneaking quietly {or so they think} away after ringing the doorbell.
This year was epic. We had to ring the doorbell 3 {yes, I said 3} different times.
Okay, the first time was a goof because Tylee got spooked and started running before she even rang the bell. The second time she didn’t know if she pushed it all the way, and when we went back the 3rd time, the treats were gone. So apparently they got the hint {wink!}
But we left a super yummy treat {AKA the best salted carmel rice krispie treats known to mankind}.

And you can google tons of different “You’ve Been Boo’ed” Printables, but here is the one that I made.
It’s a free Download if ya want it.
I hope you guys will spread the Halloween love and go Boo all yo friends. Hopefully you’ll have better luck than we did, although we had lots of giggles, which made it all the more fun.

SALTED CARAMEL RICE KRISPIE TREATS RECIPE:
RICE KRISPIES: {make as normal}
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 package (10 oz.) regular marshmallows
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
Heat butter and melt mallows together, take off heat, add in the cereal and mix together. Make sure not to over-cook the marshmallows or they will make the treats hard.
Then you make the caramel for the top:
1 cup white sugar
3/4 cup corn syrup
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Course sea salt – sprinkle on the top
DIRECTIONS:
Butter a 9×13 dish. In a large pan, make your Rice Krispie treats. When done, press them into the bottom of the 9×13.
Next make your Caramel: In a large pan, combine your sugar, corn syrup, 1/2 cup heavy cream and butter. Stir often and bring to a boil. Over medium heat, pour in the remaining cream.
Heat, without stirring to 242 degrees. If you don’t have a thermometer then just go by the “soft-ball” caramel stage. This will take approximately 20 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir in the vanilla. Immediately pour over Rice Krispies. If there are any bubbles, just pop em with a fork. Let cool for about 5 minutes then sprinkle the top with coarse sea salt. Once the carmel has completely cooled, you can cut it into squares.
