Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons salted butter if using unsalted, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt when you add the vanilla
  • 10 cups mini marshmallows divided, into 8 cups & 2 cups
  • 4 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
  • 2 cups Fruity Pebbles
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Line 9x9 pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Set aside. (Use 8x8 pan for extra thick treats - 9x13 pan - double recipe)
  • Melt butter in a large Dutch oven or pot. Add 8 cups (16 oz) of marshmallows and stir until completely melted on low heat.
  • Remove from heat and add salt and vanilla
  • Add the Rice Krispies, Fruity Pebbles, and 2 more cups (2 & 1/2 oz) of marshmallows to melted marshmallow mixture to get the gooey marshmallow starting to melt and continue stirring to coat completely.
  • Pour mixture into prepared pan and press in evenly.
  • Add some extra marshmallows on top if you wish or you can also top with some melted white chocolate drizzles for some added fun!
  • Let set in pan for up to one hour before cutting into bars.
  • Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days, but Krispie treats are always best the first day.

Notes

9 - 16 servings depending on how you slice them .
Use other cereals if you wish.
For the 2 cups you add in at the end, use 2 cups of spring colored (pink, green, yellow) mini marshmallows instead of white for even more color!
