Most people have heard of Kellogg's Rice Krispies Treats, but how about using Fruity Pebbles cereal instead of Rice Krispies cereal to make these fruity marshmallow treats? Post Foods has a recipe for marshmallow crispy treats on their website, but they used about 8 1/2 cups of Fruity Pebbles cereal. Yikes - that seemed like kind of a lot! My taste tester for the day, Lauren, declared these to be "very good." I'm keeping her busy this summer, sampling all of my recipes :) I like these kinds of no-bake desserts, especially when it's really hot outside and you don't want to turn on the oven.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons margarine
10.5 ounce package mini marshmallows (any brand)
6 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
Spray a 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. In a medium pot, melt the margarine slowly on the stove. Add the marshmallows and continue to cook over low heat until all the marshmallows are melted, stirring constantly with a large spoon. Remove from heat and add the cereal. Combine thoroughly until well coated. Press evenly into pan and let completely cool before cutting.
