Why this Recipe Works

Classic Butter and Marshmallow Base – Keeps the treats soft, chewy, and dependable every time.

Fruity Pebbles Cereal Adds Vibrant Color – Along with crunchy texture and bold fruity flavor without overwhelming the sweetness.

Gently Melted Marshmallows – Prevents stiffness and helps the bars stay tender instead of hard.

Ingredients You’ll Need

5 tbsp Butter – Adds richness and flavor while helping the marshmallows melt smoothly into a soft, chewy base.

1 (16 oz) bag Mini-Marshmallows – Melt down to bind the cereal together and create the signature gooey, chewy texture.

4 cups Fruity Pebbles Cereal – Provides bright color, fruity flavor, and crisp texture that gives these treats their fun, rainbow look.

2 cups Rice Krispies Cereal – Balances the sweetness, adds classic crunch, and helps keep the treats light rather than overly dense.

How to Make the Best Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispie Treats

Spray 9 x 9 pan with non-stick spray and set aside.

Remove 2 1/2 cups of mini-marshmallows from the 16 oz bag and set aside.

Melt 5 tbsp butter in a large microwave safe bowl.

Pour remaining mini-marshmallows into the bowl and stir.

Place into the microwave for 45 seconds, remove and stir.

Return to the microwave and heat for another 45 seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir again.

Pour 4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal and 2 cups Rice Krispies into the melted marshmallows and mix until well combined.

Fold reserved 2 1/2 cups mini-marshmallows into the mixture.

Distribute evenly and press gently into the pan.

Pro Tip: Place a Ziplock bag over your hand and spray the outside of the bag with non-stick spray before pressing down the Fruit Treats. This helps to keep them from sticking to your hand!

Use Fresh Marshmallows – Fresh marshmallows melt smoother and create softer, gooier treats. Old or stale marshmallows can make the bars dense and hard instead of chewy.

Let Cool Before Cutting – Allow the treats to cool completely so they set properly. Cutting too soon can cause them to fall apart or stick excessively.

Press Lightly into the Pan – Gently press the mixture into the pan instead of packing it down. Pressing too firmly leads to hard bars.

Storing – Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for best texture and flavor.
