    Fruity Pebbles Rice Crispy Treats Tips

    • Spray your hands with cooking spray when smoothing it out. It will help prevent it from sticking to your hands.
    • Use fresh marshmallows. If you use stale marshmallows, it will change the texture and they will be denser.
    • When melting the marshmallows, be sure to stir frequently over low heat. You want to avoid it getting too hot. The sugar in the marshmallows will get hard and ruin the treats. The marshmallows should become smooth.
    • Do not use butter substitutes. It will change the taste and texture of the treats.

    All rice crispy treat recipes, regardless of the type of cereal added need to be stored in an airtight container. I recommend storing them no longer than 2 days. They will become dense and lose their softness after the 2nd day.
