Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10 cups mini marshmallows
- 6 cups Trix cereal
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 as needed nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lightly spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Add the mini marshmallows to the pot and stir continuously until they are completely melted and smooth.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Quickly add the Trix cereal to the marshmallow mixture and gently fold until the cereal is evenly coated with the melted marshmallow.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or your hands (lightly greased with nonstick spray) to press the mixture evenly into the dish.
Allow the Trix Treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes until they are fully set.
Cut the treats into square or rectangular pieces using a sharp knife.
Serve and enjoy your colorful, fruity Trix Treats! Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
