How to Make Lucky Charms Rice Krispie Treats

- Pour the mixture into an 8×8 dish and place in the fridge for 1 hour to set.

Tips & Tricks
- ✔ Use Fresh Marshmallows – Stale marshmallows won’t melt as smoothly, so always use a fresh bag for that soft, gooey texture.
- ✔ Don’t Overheat the Marshmallows – Melt them on low heat and stir constantly to keep the mixture silky smooth.
- ✔ Press Gently into the Pan – Packing them too tightly can make the treats hard instead of chewy. Use a greased spatula or your hands (lightly buttered) to press them evenly.
- ✔ Add Extra Marshmallows on Top – Sprinkle some Lucky Charms marshmallows on top before the treats set for extra color and crunch.
