Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 10 cups Mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 5 cups Fruity cereal (e.g., Fruit Loops or Fruity Pebbles)
- 1 pinch Salt (optional)
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray or butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking pan by greasing it lightly with nonstick cooking spray or butter. Set aside.
In a large, nonstick saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent it from burning.
Add the mini marshmallows to the melted butter and stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt (if using).
Gently fold the fruity cereal into the melted marshmallow mixture, ensuring the cereal is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula, lightly greased with nonstick spray or butter, to press the mixture evenly and firmly into the pan.
Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour or until set.
Once set, use a sharp knife to cut the confetti treats into squares or desired shapes.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
