Instructions

  • Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick spray and set aside.
  • In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  • Add in 8 cups of the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

Notes

  1. Salted Butter: Normally with sweet treats, you use unsalted butter. But when it comes to no-bake treats like this, I prefer to use salted because half the deliciousness is from the salty buttery taste. However, you can use unsalted and add salt as needed.
  2. Reserve Extra Marshmallows: I don’t like to melt all of my marshmallows into the mixture, I always reserve 2 cups to go in with the cereal because this leaves little pockets of marshmallow goodness throughout the treats. You can add in a couple more cups if you really want to load these babies up with marshmallows! Also, I highly recommend saving some of the Lucky Charms marshmallows too to put on the top.
  3. Cooking Spray: This is an essential item with this recipe, spraying your hands with it helps prevent your fingers from sticking to the treat mixture and makes it easier to handle when pressing it into the pan. You'll also want to spray the lining of the pan so the treats don't adhere to it.
  4. Don’t Press Too Hard: You want your treats to be firm, but still chewy. Pressing too hard on the mixture when you put it in the pan will cause treats to become tough.
  5. Slice Just Before Serving: To ensure that your treats to get dried out or crispy around the edges, slice them just before serving or dipping them.
  6. Make It Fun: If you have little ones who love to help in the kitchen, this is the perfect recipe for them to make! Let them assist in measuring the ingredients, pressing the mixture into the pan, or adding the sprinkles!
