½teaspoonsaltoptional
110.5-ounce box Lucky Charms (9 cups)
Instructions
Coat a 9 x 13 baking pan or two 8 x 8 baking pans with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a large pot. Add the salt (if using) and marshmallows. Stir constantly until the marshmallows have melted completely.
Remove from heat and gently stir in Lucky Charms cereal.
Spoon into the baking pan, pressing down gently with a greased spatula or your hands into an even layer.
Allow the cereal bars to cool at room temperature before slicing and serving.
Notes
If using salted butter cut added salt to ¼ teaspoon.Add 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract to the recipe for added flavor.Do not press down the bars down too firmly into the pan or the bars will end up being hard. For best results, wait until just before serving to cut your bars. This will keep them as soft and chewy as possible.Store bars at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Separate bars with wax or parchment paper so that they do not stick together.
