Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 15 ounces mini marshmallows
- 8 to 9 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan set over low heat, melt the butter slowly. Once melted, add all but one cup of the mini marshmallows and stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and combined with the butter.
- Add Remaining Marshmallows: Next, stir in the remaining one cup of mini marshmallows. Continue stirring for a few seconds just until they are slightly softened and incorporated, then promptly remove the pan from heat to avoid overcooking.
- Add Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract thoroughly to infuse the marshmallow mixture with a rich, sweet flavor.
- Combine with Cereal: Pour in the Fruity Pebbles cereal and gently fold it into the marshmallow mixture until all cereal pieces are evenly coated, ensuring every bite is marshmallow-soft and colorful.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the sticky mixture into a greased 9×13-inch pan. Using a greased spatula or wax paper, press down firmly and evenly to form a smooth, compact layer.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the treats to cool completely at room temperature so they set properly. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve these delightful Fruity Pebbles treats to friends and family.
Notes
- For easier handling, grease your hands or spatula when pressing the mixture into the pan to prevent sticking.
- You can substitute Fruity Pebbles with any other puffed rice cereal for a different flavor or texture.
- Store the treats in an airtight container to maintain freshness and chewiness for up to 3 days.
- These treats are perfect for fun-themed parties, kids’ snacks, or an easy homemade dessert.
