Reviews
I just made these with my daughter and they are so yummy! I was worried that they would be overly sweet, but they are not. I will say I do prefer these to the krispie rice cereal treats.
This was a very simple recipe to follow. It worked like a charm on the very first try. My 11 year son was able to help ice and sprinkle. He was the official taste tester who said, “You need to make more!” I made 2 batches for Easter dinner and there were none left! Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe!
Rice Krispy treats take rice cereal and marshmallow and transform them into something greater than the sum of its parts. Charmed Marshmallow Treats take Lucky Charms and marshmallows and transform them into lumps of Lucky Charms glued together with marshmallows. They’re fine if you like Lucky Charms, but they don’t improve upon the cereal treat genre. The white chocolate coating definitely adds much-needed sweetness and flavor.
The recipe is sticky and a difficult to work with. It was not easy to press the mixture into the pan and the marshmallow oozed to the bottom while chilling, forming a gluey layer. This made it difficult to remove the treats from the pan. I didn’t use a cookie cutter, but just sliced them into small bite-sized pieces.
I would not make this again. It’s not that hard, though, aside from the stickiness, so if you really love Lucky Charms, you might give it a try.
Really yummy treat! I made some for easter and could not stop smacking on this stuff! Really really sweet. :
