Ingredients

  • Butter: 1/4 cup
  • Mini Marshmallows: 10 ounces (plus 1/2 cup for garnish)
  • Lucky Charms Cereal: 6 cups
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1/4 teaspoon
  • Powdered Sugar: 2 tablespoons (for dusting, optional)
  • White Chocolate Chips: 1/2 cup
  • Edible Glitter: 1/2 teaspoon (optional)
  • Sprinkles: 1/4 cup (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare your pan: Generously butter a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy lifting. Set aside.
  • Melt butter and marshmallows: In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, melt 1/4 cup of butter over low heat. Once mostly melted, add 10 ounces of mini marshmallows. Continue stirring constantly over low heat until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
  • Add flavorings: Quickly stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix until well combined.
  • Combine with cereal: Immediately add 6 cups of Lucky Charms cereal (reserving about ½ cup of the colorful marshmallows for later). Gently fold them into the marshmallow mixture until the cereal is evenly coated. Then, gently fold in half of the reserved Lucky Charms marshmallows.
  • Press into pan: Transfer the mixture into your prepared baking dish. Using a buttered spatula or lightly buttered hands, gently and evenly press the mixture into the pan. Avoid pressing too firmly.
  • Cool: Let the treats cool completely on your counter for at least 30-45 minutes before cutting.
  • Prepare garnish: Melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals (stirring after each) or over a double boiler until smooth and creamy. Let it cool slightly.
  • Garnish and set: After cutting the cooled Lucky Charms Rice Krispie Treats into squares, drizzle the melted white chocolate generously over the top. While the white chocolate is still wet, immediately sprinkle the remaining reserved Lucky Charms marshmallows, optional sprinkles, and optional edible glitter over each square. Let the white chocolate set completely before serving.
