Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispie Treats

I love a good marshmallow treat. It’s an easy snack that feeds a crowd, uses minimal ingredients, and requires very little time.  The classic rice krispie treat will always be my favorite but this fruity twist is a close second.  Each bite is bursting with that fruity flavor fruity pebbles are known for and ooey gooey marshmallows that the kids love.

Ooey Gooey Marshmallow Treats

We like our rice krispie treats on the ooey gooey side of things and this recipe reflects that.  If you like your marshmallow treats a bit firmer just add a bit more cereal, depending on your preference. Make sure to remember that the rice krispies will firm up a bit while cooling so you don’t want to add too much and then end up with dry treats. 

Ingredients needed:

  • marshmallows
  • butter
  • fruity pebbles cereal
  • vanilla extract
