    Tips for Making Fruit Pebbles Marshmallow Treats

    While there are only four ingredients in these no-bake cookies, sometimes the ratios of marshmallow to cereal can be a little tricky. Here are a few tips to help your fruity pebbles cereal bars appear perfect every time.

    Tips for Making Fruity Pebble Rice Crispy Treats

    If you're a fan of Rice Krispie Treats, you need to try this fun and colorful twist on the classic recipe - Fruity Pebble Rice Crispy Treats!

    1. Use Fresh Marshmallows- It's best to use fresh marshmallows for the best taste and texture. Older marshmallows can get hard and lose their fluffiness.
    2. Add a Couple Handfuls of Marshmallows to the Cereal before Mixing- This will give the Rice Krispie Treats chunks of marshmallows throughout the cookie bars. It will melt a little when you're mixing up the cookie bars and then leave you with delicious chunks of ooey gooey goodness.
    3. Melt the Marshmallows Slowly- When melting the marshmallows, it's important to do it slowly. Slowly melt the marshmallows, stirring constantly to avoid burning them.
    4. Add the Cereal Gradually- When adding the Fruity Pebbles cereal to the melted marshmallows, it's best to add it gradually. Add a bit at a time and mix well to ensure that the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture. Adding too much cereal at once can make it difficult to mix and result in clumps of cereal in your treats. Don't add too much cereal or you might have dry crispy treats.
    5. Use a Non-Stick Spray- To prevent your treats from sticking to the pan or dish, it's best to use a non-stick spray. Spray the pan or dish before adding the mixture to make it easier to remove the treats once they've cooled.
    6. Let them Cool Completly- One of the biggest mistakes people make when making Fruity Pebble Rice Crispy Treats is not letting them cool completely. Waiting for the treats to cool allows them to firm up and hold their shape. If you try to cut the treats while they're still warm, they'll fall apart and be difficult to serve.
    7. Cut into Bite-Size Pieces- When cutting your treats, it's best to cut them into bite-sized or easy-to-hold pieces. This makes them easier to eat and serve, especially if you're bringing them to a party or potluck. You can also use cookie cutters to cut them into fun shapes.

    Tips for making Fruit Pebbles Treats

    • Use butter to grease the baking dish. No one likes the taste of pam. It's a little messier, but taking the time to grease your baking sheet with butter will definitely pay off. You want that first bite into the cookie to be joyous, not the synthetic greasy taste of cooking spray, smooth butter, and then sweet, fruity chewy!
    • Be sure to use butter, not margarine, in this recipe.
    • You can substitute a couple of cups of fruity pebbles for regular rice crispies. This will cut down on the sweetness of these cookies. The recipe I made in these pictures has all 6 cups of fruity pebbles, but I've made them many times with half rice crispies, and they're fantastic and a little less sweet.
    • Coconut extract in place of vanilla extract is a fun variation. It's more of a tropical fruity pebble cookie. YUM!
    • You can store the leftovers in a ziplock bag or a covered container for up to a few days.
