AmandaThere are some days that you just don’t feel like going to the store to buy the kiddos snacks. So I searched around and tried to figure out what quick, simple snack could I whip up with ingredients I already had. Then, I got it! Lucky Charms Crispy Treats! I mean c’mon…what is better then Lucky Charms mixed with marshmallows?? Luckily, in my house, Lucky Charms rules all and so we always have a steady supply of our favorite cereal…AND marshmallows! Let’s just say we are also s’mores fans too, so those are pretty plentiful in our pantry. Now, this batch I made was a small one because I’ll be honest, I can’t find my big baking dish! However, I made sure these were still a little thick so that way I could make up for them being in a small baking dish.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 Cups Marshmallows
- 1 Stick of Butter
- 2 Cups Lucky Charms Cereal
Directions:
- Grease your baking dish with coconut oil or butter
- Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add your marshmallows, and turn the heat down to medium-low.
- After everything is combined, pour your Lucky Charms into your baking dish.
- Pour the butter/marshmallow mixture on top.
- Stir gently to try and not crush the cereal.
- Once it is all mixed and spread evenly, place into the refrigerator to set (about 30 minutes).
- Cut into squares and enjoy!
Notes:
- I used regular size marshmallows, but you can use minis if you prefer!
It is no secret my kiddos love these amazing little treats! They waited patiently in the kitchen while I cut up all the squares. Amaiah’s little fingers tried to get close to the counter, but she eventually settled into her chair and waited. These are a for sure quick and simple treat that the whole family can enjoy!
