Why This Recipe Works

Key Ingredients
Unsalted butter, miniature marshmallows, Fruity Pebbles cereal, and sea salt create a balanced sweet and salty flavor.
How to Make
Mix cereal with half marshmallows, melt remaining marshmallows in butter, then press into a greased pan for a chewy texture.
Variations
Melt all marshmallows, add mix-ins like nuts or pretzels, or make single-serve treats for a quick snack.
Storage Tips
Store at room temperature for three to five days or freeze for up to six weeks without losing texture.
Preventing Hard Treats
Avoid stale marshmallows, overheating, or packing too tightly to keep treats soft and chewy.
Alternative Pans
