A very neat idea to use up Rice Krispies! Although I didn't have all the ingredients, of course I substituted cayenne for the red pepper/tobasco. I threw in a spoonful of mustard, experimenting and used a special seasoning salt. Took them to the local pub..and they were gone in minutes! Will definitely use the basis recipe again!

These were DELICIOUS! I altered the shape to make "Witch's Fingers" to go alongside the main dish for my daughter's Spooky Sleepover Bday Party. I will definitely make these again - so simple, yet a really terrific flavor. Thanks!
