How to make your Dinosaur Meat prank
How to make your expired ground beast Halloween Pranke:
- Begin by melting the butter and marshmallows in a sauce pan (over low heat)
- Once melted, add the red food dye (the better quality the red food dye, the better you results), as well as the optional vanilla. Mix well.
- Now add the rice crispies and mix.
- Make some rice crispy patties and let them set.
Once your red meat patties are set, you can package them up in the prank meat trays.
This Halloween Rice Kirpies will keep – but they are best kept in an airtight container (even once packaged) to help keep them fresh.
As mentioned, this Dino Meat Prank would be great addition to an Halloween Party food, whether at home or in the classroom or as an addition to your Boo Your Neighbour’s Gift Basket. Of course, don’t forget to “bring these back out” for April Fool’s too!
