Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 6 cups Lucky Charms cereal
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Binding Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
Flavoring Ingredient:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare a rectangular baking dish by thoroughly coating the interior with non-stick cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the treats.
- Place butter in a spacious cooking pot and melt over medium-low temperature, watching carefully to prevent scorching.
- Pour marshmallows into the melted butter and continuously stir until the mixture transforms into a silky, uniform consistency with no visible lumps.
- Eliminate the pot from the heat source and integrate vanilla extract, gently stirring to disperse the aromatic flavor throughout the marshmallow base.
- Introduce white chocolate chips into the warm mixture, stirring until they completely dissolve and create a luxurious, creamy texture.
- Swiftly incorporate Lucky Charms cereal, ensuring each piece becomes evenly glazed with the sweet marshmallow and white chocolate coating.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula or buttered hands to distribute and compress the treats uniformly.
- Allow the confection to solidify at room temperature for approximately one hour, permitting the ingredients to bind and set perfectly.
- Once cooled and stabilized, slice the treat into symmetrical squares using a sharp knife for clean, precise portions.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and optimal texture.
Notes
- Soften butter slightly before melting to ensure smooth, even coating of marshmallows and prevent burning.
- Use low-medium heat when melting marshmallows to achieve a silky, glossy texture without scorching.
- Fold cereal gently to maintain marshmallow coating and prevent crushing the delicate Lucky Charms shapes.
- Allow treats to cool completely at room temperature for clean, crisp cut edges that hold their shape perfectly.
