- Combine Cereal and Mini Marshmallows: Remove the pot from heat and immediately add the 6 cups of Lucky Charms cereal along with 1 cup of mini marshmallows.
- Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture well to ensure the cereal and mini marshmallows are evenly coated with the melted marshmallow mixture.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the sticky mixture into a greased 9×13 inch pan, pressing it down firmly and evenly to create a compact layer.
- Cool and Cut: Let the treats cool completely in the pan before cutting into 24 squares for serving.
Notes
- Use wax paper or a buttered spatula to press the mixture into the pan to prevent sticking.
- For extra fun, consider adding pastel food coloring to the melted marshmallows before mixing.
