Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 5 cups Fruity Pebbles Cereal
- 10 ounces (280 grams) mini marshmallows
Binding Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) salted butter
Additional Seasoning:
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter)
Instructions
- Melt butter and marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute on high, stirring vigorously until smooth and fully liquefied.
- Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals if marshmallows are not completely melted, ensuring a uniform consistency.
- Immediately fold Fruity Pebbles cereal into the warm marshmallow mixture, gently turning to coat every colorful morsel evenly.
- Transfer the sticky mixture into an 8×8-inch pan, using a spatula to press and distribute the cereal uniformly and create an even surface.
- Allow the treats to set at room temperature for 30 minutes, or expedite cooling by placing the pan in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Once completely cooled and firm, slice the treats into 9 equal rectangular portions using a sharp knife.
- Preserve the treats’ freshness by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature, where they will maintain their delightful texture for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality marshmallows for the creamiest texture and best melting consistency.
- Spray your spatula or hands with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticky mixture from clinging while mixing and spreading.
- For a gluten-free version, ensure your marshmallows are gluten-free and use certified gluten-free Fruity Pebbles.
- Experiment with different cereal variations like Rainbow or Cocoa Pebbles for unique flavor twists on this classic treat.
