These Gooey Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispies Treats are a quick, no-bake dessert made with just four ingredients. They combine classic crispy rice cereal with fruity cereal for a colorful, nostalgic treat that’s perfect for parties and ready in 15 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 package (10 ounces) regular marshmallows (about 4 cups mini or 40 large)
  • 4 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 2 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on two sides. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Place a large pot over medium-low heat. Add 3 tablespoons unsalted butter and melt slowly, swirling occasionally, until fully melted but not bubbling.
  3. Add the entire bag of marshmallows to the pot. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  4. If using, stir in vanilla extract and salt quickly.
  5. Pour in 4 cups Rice Krispies and 2 cups Fruity Pebbles. Fold gently with the spatula until all cereal is evenly coated, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan. Use a second piece of parchment paper or a greased spatula to gently press into an even layer. Do not press too hard.
  7. Let cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes (or refrigerate for 15 minutes if in a hurry).
  8. Once cooled, lift the block out using the parchment handles. Cut into squares with a sharp knife, wiping the blade with a damp paper towel between cuts.

Notes

Use fresh marshmallows for best gooey texture. Do not overcook marshmallows; remove from heat as soon as smooth. Press mixture gently to keep treats light and airy. Grease spatula with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Do not refrigerate. Can be frozen for up to 3 months.
