Scale
- 85 g unsalted butter
- 6 cups regular marshmallows

- Remove the bowl from heat. Add salt and food coloring, then whisk again.
- Pour the marshmallow mixture over Rice Bubbles in a large mixing bowl. Stir until fully coated.

Notes
- Use gloves to avoid staining your hands when shaping the brains.
- Adjust food coloring to achieve your desired shade of red.
- For a more realistic effect, add more veins with the toothpick.
