Fruity Pebbles Treats
Here's how to make a quick no-bake dessert using Fruity Pebbles cereal, marshmallows, and butter, and it's all done in just a few minutes!
Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup or 1 stick
- 16 ounces mini marshmallows divided
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 7 cups Fruit Pebbles crispy cereal
Instructions
- Prepare a 9-inch square baking pan by greasing it well with butter.
- In a large pan on the stove, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low; add all of the marshmallows EXCEPT for 1 cup.
- Stir constantly, until the marshmallows are melted.
- Remove from the heat, and stir in the vanilla.
- Add the Fruit Pebble crispy cereal and the remaining one cup of mini mallows, and stir to combine well, making sure there are no dry pockets of cereal.
- Add the cereal to the prepared pan, and use a spatula to spread it out to an even layer, taking care not to press or smash it down. If a spatula isn’t cutting it, get your hands lightly damp, and gently press out the cereal. A buttered bottom of a measuring cup also works well.
- Let the rice crispy treats cool for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Melt your marshmallows at a low temperature.
- Use fresh marshmallows and stick to the mini ones. They melt more easily and the cup of them thrown in with the cereal looks so cute.
- Don’t push the mixture too firmly into the pan. You want them to be light and airy so gently spread them but don't smash it down.
- This recipe works with all kinds of cereals. Give some of your favorites a try.
