# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Unwrap caramels and combine with butter and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Let cool until thickened.
02 -
Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with waxed paper and generously butter it. Set aside.

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine pumpkin spice marshmallows and butter. Cover and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until fully melted.
04 -
Stir Rice Krispies cereal into the melted marshmallow mixture. Press into the prepared pan evenly. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
05 -
Spread marshmallow creme over the chilled cereal layer using an offset spatula, leaving 1 to 2 inches on one long edge clear.
06 -
Spread the thickened caramel over the marshmallow creme. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
07 -
Roll the layered mixture jellyroll style from the long side, peeling away the waxed paper as you go. Pinch the seam to seal and place seam side down. Refrigerate for 30 to 45 minutes.
08 -
Slice the chilled roll into pinwheels and serve. Insert pretzel sticks and shape green laffy taffy for decorative pumpkin-style presentation if desired.
# Extra Tips:

Let the caramel cool slightly before spreading to avoid runny layers.
02 -
Ensure the base layer is fully chilled before adding toppings for easier rolling.
03 -
Use an offset spatula to achieve smooth and even layers.
