Marshmallow treats are my favorite! I can say all day long that I make them for the kids, but who am I kidding! They are for me 🙂
Seriously though, the crunch of the cereal with the gooeyness of the marshmallow makes for the ultimate dessert!
How to make these?
To make these, you only need a few ingredients! I like to mix different types of cereal into my treats so for this one I used rice krispie cereal and I also used reese’s puff cereal.
The puff cereal gives you that taste of chocolate and peanut butter that you might be looking for. The rice cereal gives you a taste of the classic marshmallow treat! It’s a win-win!
STOVE TOP OR MICROWAVE?
You actually could use either way. Sadly we do not have a microwave right now so I’m forced to make them on my stove. It really isn’t that big of a deal except it takes about 5 extra minutes.
The microwave melts the marshmallows super quick. The stove top version you need to be super careful that you don’t burn the marshmallows. That is never fun!
Can you freeze these?
Why yes you can! I do it all of the time! The best way to freeze them is wrap them first in parchment or wax paper. This just helps them not stick together while they freeze.
They are perfect individual desserts that can be grabbed out of the freezer at anytime!
I would suggest allowing them to come to room temperature for about 10 minutes. Although I do eat them frozen and LOVE them!
