Ingredients

Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.

Full measurements are in the recipe card below.

Butter- use unsalted butter for this recipe. Only butter will work for this recipe, no margarine, and no coconut oil. Margarine has a weird taste and can ruin the flavor of this delicious baked good.

Fruity pebbles cereal- make sure that you are using fresh cereal and not an expired one!

Vanilla extract– Vanilla extract Is an essential ingredient in baking and adds a delicious flavor to these bars.

Salt– We used kosher salt for this recipe. Salt doesn’t give them a salty taste, it helps to enhance the flavor.

Instructions

Prepare a parchment paper-lined 8 by 8-inch baking pan.

Into a saucepan, add the butter and melt it over medium-high heat. Then add the marshmallows, mixing constantly until the marshmallows melt.

Let the mixture chill in the fridge for at least one hour. This step helps it set and makes it easy to cut into bars.

Expert Tips

  • Avoid packing the mixture into the pan too tightly. We like an airy and crispy texture instead of a dense texture.
  • Be patient and let the treats rest in the fridge and set so they will be easy to cut. If you will try to slice them when they are warm, they will fall apart and leave you with a sticky mess.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper so it will be easier to release the bars from the pan! This step is crucial and will prevent a mess.
  • Dampen your fingers before you start to press the mixture into the pan. Also, make sure that you clean your hands thoroughly, to make this process smooth and easy!
  • Melt the marshmallow mixture until it's just melted and immediately remove it from the heat. This will prevent your treats from getting hard.

Faq's

Can I make this with salted butter?

Yes! Simply skip the added salt! If you are using unsalted butter, we like adding a pinch or so of salt to balance the flavors.

How to cut these treats?

Our favorite way to cut these bars and cakes is by dipping a long knife into hot water, once the knife warms up, wipe off the excess water, and slice the bars. Dip and wipe the knife between every slice.

How long will this last?

These treats will last for up to 4 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge or for up to 3 days stored at room temperature.

Storing

It’s okay to store these bars at room temperature. Cover them with plastic wrap or foil to prevent them from drying out.

Freezing

To freeze bars, you will need to wrap the bars in plastic wrap or foil and seal them in an airtight container or in an airtight resealable bag. You can freeze them for up to 2 months.

Substitutions

Marshmallows- we used large marshmallows for this recipe, but you can use mini marshmallows as well.

Variations

Add-ins- we love adding fresh mini marshmallows to the mixture for an extra chewy texture!
