- 6 tablespoons butter for the crust
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal for the crust
- 3 1/2 cups mini marshmallows for the filling
- 3 tablespoons butter for the filling
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
Grease a standard 12-cup muffin pan and set it aside.
Melt 6 tablespoons butter with 7 cups mini marshmallows in a large pot over low heat, stirring occasionally until smooth.
Remove the pot from the heat, stir in 6 cups crispy rice cereal until coated, and divide the mixture among the muffin cups.
Press a firm indentation into each warm cereal cup to form the pie crust shape.
Melt 3 tablespoons butter, 3 1/2 cups mini marshmallows, and the pumpkin pie spice in a medium pot over low heat.
Remove from the heat, tint with orange gel food coloring, then stir in 3 cups crispy rice cereal until evenly coated.
Spoon the orange mixture into the cereal crusts and press it gently into place.
Cool completely before removing the treats from the pan, then add whipped cream just before serving if desired.
