Recipe Notes & Pro Tips

For an extra boost of flavor, try making brown butter by cooking the butter on high heat until golden and nutty before adding the marshmallows.

Don’t overpack the mixture in the pan—light pressure creates softer, gooier treats.

Store leftovers in an airtight container or zip-top bag at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Avoid common mistakes by stirring quickly when combining the cereal bars and marshmallow mixture to prevent hardening.
