Notes
Line your baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
Stir marshmallows constantly over medium heat to prevent sticking and ensure a smooth mixture.
Work quickly once the cereal is added, as the mixture sets fast.
For best results, allow the treats to cool completely before cutting.
These treats are delicious chilled from the fridge!
