Instructions

Notes

  • Use any type of Cheerios you prefer, except, I wouldn't do the fruity ones.
  • Prepare your pan or use parchment paper as these may stick.
  • If you can't find the marshmallow fluff, a small bag of mini marshmallows will work as well (melt in the microwave).
  • Soften the marshmallow cream in the microwave for 10-20 secs to make it easier to remove from the jar.
  • This is a no bake recipe, but you still have to heat things in the microwave. If you prefer not to use a microwave, heat on the stovetop until the marshmallow cream is a thick liquid.
  • It's fine to substitute margarine for the butter.
  • You can substitute other kinds of cereal.
PRO TIP: To add a lot of zip and pizazz to your recipe, add M&M's, Reese's pieces or chopped up candy bar to your cookies!
