Trix Treats
These Trix Treats are like a Rice Krispie but with more varied flavors and bright colors! They are prepped in about 10 minutes, plus cooling time.
Ingredients
- half a stick of butter
- 1 bag of marshmallows 10 or 16 OZ
- 1 box of Trix Cereal If you use a 16 OZ bag of marshmallows, you might want a box and a little extra
- a pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Melt the butter in the bottom of a large bowl.
- Pour the marshmallows on top.

- They are ready when they are mostly melted with a few visible lumps still left in them.

- Spray a 10×13 pan with non-stick cooking spray.
