How to Make Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispie Treats
Get ready for some quick and colorful magic in the kitchen!
Step 1:
Prepare the Pan. Grease an 8×8 pan. We want these to be thick so we’re using a square pan. A 9×12 will also work but the treats will be thinner.
Step 2:
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir until it is melted.
Step 3:
Once the butter is melted, add the marshmallows and stir constantly so they don’t burn. Mix until the marshmallows are melted.
Step 4:
Remove the pan from the heat and gently stir in the Fruity Pebbles. Make sure every piece of cereal is covered in marshmallow.
Step 5:
Put the mixture into the pan and press it down evenly. Use parchment paper or waxed paper to keep it from sticking to your hands. Let it cool for about 30 minutes
Step 6:
After 30 minutes, cut them into squares and serve!
