Lucky Charms Cereal
Rice Krispies Cereal
Mini-Marshmallows
Butter
Salt
Vanilla Extract
9″x 9″ pan (you can use an 8″x 8″ pan as well)
A Few Helpful Tips
- Line the pan with parchment paper, this makes it so easy to remove it from the pan. I’m not sue why no one has thought of this and instead the greased pan. I always struggled getting out the first piece. You know the routine.
- Not that it’s rocket science to make this Lucky Charms Rise Krispies Treats, but using mini-marshmallows makes it easier to measure and melt.
- If you’re in a hurry and want the treats to set up quickly, pop them in the fridge or freezer for a couple of minutes and they’ll be firmed up in no time at all.
- If you want to freeze them for later, place some wax paper or parchment paper in between layers of treats. Then place them in a air-tight container. They will stay fresh in the freezer for a about 6 weeks.
- Add some Vanilla extract for yummy addition.
