I’ll be honest. I’d like to think that when I purchase Rice Krispie treats they are only for the kids.
They are not. I love them just as much as anyone else in this house! They are my guilty pleasure, I’ve loved them since I was a kid!

What ingredients do I need to make these rainbow Rice Krispie treats?
5 tablespoons butter
6 cups mini marshmallows divided
4 cups lucky charms marshmallows (JUST the marshmallows!) If you have a box at home, it’s a fun task for the kids to separate the marshmallows from the cereal! Or of course you can purchase the marshmallows ONLY from Amazon or your supermarket.
