Fruity Rice Crispy Treats – A Fun, Colorful Twist on the Classic!
These fruity rice crispy treats are a colorful twist on the classic, made with fruity crispy rice cereal, mini marshmallows, and sweetened condensed milk for a gooey, crunchy treat. Perfect for any occasion!
In a large bowl, pour in the box of fruity crispy rice cereal and set it aside.
Add butter and all but 1 cup of the marshmallows to a large pot over medium heat. Continuously stirring until all the marshmallows and butter are melted together. Pour in sweetened condensed milk and stir until incorporated. This is the secret to keeping the treats gooey and delicious!
Remove the marshmallow mixture from heat and pour it directly over the cereal in the large bowl. Gently fold the mixture to coat the cereal evenly. Stir in 3/4 cup of the remaining marshmallows. Next, spoon the mixture into a parchment-lined 9x9 baking pan. Use a clean measuring cup or a piece of parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray to gently press the mixture down, compacting it into the pan. Finally, top with the remaining 1/4 cup of marshmallows.
Let the treats sit for at least an hour at room temperature to set, or refrigerate for about 30 minutes for faster results. Once set, cut into squares and store in an airtight container.
