Butter a 9 x 13 inch or an 8 x 11 baking dish for a taller treat.
In a heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat; add pumpkin puree; continue to cook until warmed through. Fold in 10 oz. marshmallows; stir frequently until almost completely melted. Stir in vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and salt; remove from heat.
Allow marshmallow mixture to cool 10 minutes; fold in the remaining 1 c. marshmallows. Continue to cool mixture for another 20 - 25 minutes until it is at room temperature. Failure to cool the mixture will result in soggy rice crispy treats. Add the puffed rice cereal; stir, using a silicone spatula, until combined.
Press mixture into the prepared baking dish. Let set for 30 minutes before cutting and serving.
12 servings.
