Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Melt Butter: In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over low heat, ensuring it doesn’t brown or burn, to prepare the base for marshmallow melting.
- Add Marshmallows: Add 3 cups of mini marshmallows to the melted butter, stirring continuously until the marshmallows are fully melted and smooth to create a sticky, binding mixture.
- Incorporate Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance the flavor profile of your treats.
- Mix in Cereal: Fold in 4 cups of Fruity Pebbles cereal carefully, ensuring all the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture for a uniform texture and taste.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the mixture into a greased pan. Press it down gently but firmly with a greased spatula or buttered hands to form an even layer without compressing too hard to maintain softness.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the treats to cool completely at room temperature so they set properly, then cut into 12 squares and serve.
Notes
- Do not press too hard when shaping the treats to keep them soft and chewy.
- Add extra mini marshmallows if you prefer a gooier texture.
- For easy removal, line your pan with parchment paper before pressing the mixture.
- Store treats in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
