Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons butter or margarine, divided
- 4 (3-ounce) packages Marshmallow Peeps in 4 different colors
- 6 cups Crispy Rice cereal, divided
Instructions
- Prepare an 8-9″ loaf pan by lining with foil and spraying lightly with cooking spray.
- Divide the Peeps by 10s of the same color – 10 pink, 10 yellow, etc. (use any colors you like).
- In a deep, medium-sized microwaveable dish, microwave 10 of the same color Peeps with 1 tablespoon of butter on high for 45 seconds. Because microwaves vary, watch closely so the Peeps don’t flow over the sides of the bowl.
- Stir butter and Peeps together until fully melted and incorporated. (Tip – spray a spatula with cooking spray before stirring).
- Stir in 1 ½ cups of cereal until fully coated. Press firmly into the loaf pan.
- Repeat steps 3-4 with the other Peeps colors.
- Allow to cool completely (1-2 hours) before slicing.
