Get ready for a new spin on your favorite Rice Krispies treat bars .. Lucky Charms Treats!

I l.o.v.e marshmallow cereal bars. I mean, I cannot even make them in my house because I will devour the whole pan myself.  

100% unapologetic.

What’s not to love when you combine marshmallows and melted butter and then the crispy Rice Krispies cereal?

Talk about sticky, crunchy but still gooey all the same time happiness!

Marshmallow cereal bars are not just exclusive to what we remember as a kid. Now delicious cereal bars can be made from just about any of your favorite cereals and Lucky Charms has always been one of my top picks.

These Lucky Charms Treats take about ten minutes to make and after chilling in refrigerator for a bit, you are rewarded with the perfect ooey gooey bar of sweet and crunchy happiness.

It’s amazing how much you will love these and how happy you will be to share these with your family and friends.  I didn’t think anything could top the classic Rice Krispies treat bars, however….

Talk about a perfect after school kids snack or a happy surprise in your kids lunchbox … or YOUR lunchbox ..

How can you possibly have a bad day when you have a Lucky Charms Treat to munch on after finishing your healthy and sensible lunchtime salad?

THAT’S balance, my friends.

WHY THESE LUCKY CHARMS TREATS ARE THE BEST

  • Super easy to make! Simply substitute Lucky Charms cereal instead of Rice Krispies in the classic marshmallow cereal bar recipe.
  • Around St. Patrick’s Day, you will find the Lucky Charms with just green marshmallows.. does it get any better?
  • These cereal bars are perfect for St. Patrick’s Day kids parties and work potlucks. 
  • Everyone loves Rice Krispies Treats and these are the same but better. If someone complains, you don’t need them as a friend.
  • No bake dessert, 10 minutes, 4 ingredients, completely portable!

To make these Lucky Charms Treats, you will need:

  • Marshmallows
  • Lucky Charms Cereal
  • Butter
  • Vanilla extract

HOW TO MAKE LUCKY CHARMS TREATS

Start by lining a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper and then pouring your Lucky Charms cereal into a large mixing bowl.

Add the butter to a large saucepan and melt over medium high heat. 

Once melted, add in the marshmallows and vanilla extract and stir continuously until the marshmallows have completely melted.

Pour the melted marshmallows over the Lucky Charms cereal and quickly stir to combine. Move to your prepared pan and move to the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour. 

Remove from pan by lifting up the parchment paper and cut into squares.

PRO TIPS FOR PERFECT CEREAL BARS

  • Don’t walk away from your marshmallows when they are melting on the stove.  All that sugar can quickly burn.
  • Having trouble smoothing out the Lucky Charms cereal in the baking pan? Spray your hands with non-stick spray and use your hands to press the cereal into place. You can also place a piece of plastic wrap on top of the cereal and press the cereal down through the plastic wrap
  • Remove your cereal bars from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature to serve.  If served straight from the fridge, the Lucky Charms Treats won’t be ooey gooey 🙂

These marshmallow treats are the perfect way to brighten up your day.

By substituting Lucky Charms for your usual Rice Krispies, you will be rewarded with the same marshmallow cereal bar but now you will be chomping on Lucky Charms Treat goodness verses the usual rice crisp treats.

Plus, these have those sweet little cut out marshmallow shapes found in the Lucky Charms cereal so that is just double the fun!
