First, you can put melted chocolate in a piping bag or in a ziplock. Then, cut the tiniest amount at the bottom of your piping bag or ziplock. Now remember those marshmallows we saved well, I made candy eyeballs with them by cutting the marshmallows in half and adding a dot of chocolate. You can also just buy candy eyeballs at the store. On a piece on parchment paper I used my melted chocolate to make little bolts to go on the side of the Frankensteins. Now, after the eyeballs are set I added a dot of chocolate to the back of them and attached them the the treats. I then used the chocolate to draw on a eyebrow above the eyes and drew on a mouth. Once the bolts were dry I added them using chocolate to the sides of the Frankensteins. And there you have it, your delicious Rice crispy Frankenstein treats are all complete!
