Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 5 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 10 Cups Mini Marshmallows (divided)
- 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/3 Cup Marshmallow Fluff
Cereals
- 2 Cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 4 Cups Fruity Pebbles Cereal
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Lightly spray a 9×9-inch pan with non-stick spray for easy serving. Line the pan with foil or parchment paper, leaving an overhang to help lift the treats out later. Spray the lining again to prevent sticking.
- Melt the Mixture: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 5 tablespoons of butter, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, and 8 cups of mini marshmallows. Heat in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until everything is melted and smooth. Be careful to avoid burning.
- Add Flavor: Stir in 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/3 cup marshmallow fluff until fully blended, giving the mixture a warm aroma and extra lusciousness.
- Combine Cereals: Pour in 2 cups Rice Krispies and 4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal. Gently fold the cereals into the marshmallow mixture, ensuring that all pieces are evenly coated with the sticky marshmallow.
- Incorporate Remaining Marshmallows: While the mixture is still warm, fold in the remaining 2 cups of mini marshmallows to add extra gooey pockets within the treats.
- Set the Treats: Lightly press the mixture into the prepared pan using a spatula or your hands dipped in butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Let the treats cool and set before cutting into squares for serving.
Notes
- Use a 9×9-inch pan to achieve the right thickness for perfect chewiness.
- For best results, avoid overheating marshmallows to prevent burning.
- You can substitute Fruity Pebbles with any fruit-flavored cereal if desired.
- Press the mixture gently to avoid compressing too tightly, which can make the treats hard.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
