Main Ingredients
- 6 cups Lucky Charms cereal
- 1 bag (10 ounces) mini marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt if using.
- Combine Cereal and Marshmallow Mixture: Immediately add the Lucky Charms cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture. Gently stir to coat the cereal evenly with the marshmallow mixture, making sure all pieces are covered.
- Press Mixture into Pan: Quickly transfer the coated cereal mixture into a greased 9×13-inch pan. Using a greased spatula or wax paper, gently press the mixture evenly into the pan. Be careful not to press too hard to avoid dense treats.
- Cool and Set: Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour until set. Once cooled, cut into 16 squares and serve.
Notes
- For extra fun, top with a few extra marshmallow bits before the mixture sets.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
