Ingredients
Scale
Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispie Treats
- 5 cups Fruity Pebble cereal
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 4 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare the cereal and pan: Pour 5 cups of Fruity Pebble cereal into a large mixing bowl and set it aside. Lightly grease an 8×8-inch pan with nonstick spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Melt butter and marshmallows: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup salted butter. Once melted, add 4 cups mini marshmallows and stir constantly until fully melted and smooth, about 3–5 minutes.
- Mix marshmallow mixture with cereal: Immediately pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the cereal. Stir thoroughly with a rubber spatula until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Transfer to pan and shape: Transfer the coated cereal mixture to the prepared 8×8-inch pan. Using wax or parchment paper, gently press the mixture evenly into the pan without pressing too hard to keep the treats light and chewy.
- Cool the treats: Allow the treats to cool completely at room temperature, about 20–30 minutes. For quicker cooling, place the pan in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes.
- Cut and serve: Once cooled, cut the treats into 9 squares and serve.
Notes
- You can substitute salted butter with unsalted butter, but add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
- For a firmer texture, refrigerate the treats for longer before cutting.
- Use wax or parchment paper to press down the mixture to prevent sticking and for easier clean-up.
- These treats are best consumed within 2-3 days for optimal freshness.
