These no-bake, 3-ingredient Halloween Monster Mash Cereal Treats are sure to be a "graveyard smash"!
When it comes to Halloween desserts, cereal treats are certainly one of the easiest! Made with iconic Monster Mash cereal and gooey marshmallows, these Monster Mash Cereal Treats are a sweet and spooky treat that little monsters will gobble up in no time. Speaking of little monsters, don't be afraid to let them help whip up this simple recipe as a fun Halloween activity!
To make these scrumptious Monster Mash Cereal Treats, you will need just 3 simple ingredients: Monster Mash cereal, butter, and of course, marshmallows! You will also need a large saucepan and a 9x13 baking dish.
First, melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add in the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
Add in the cereal, and stir until it is all evenly coated in the marshmallow mixture. For extra chewiness, you can add in a small handful of mini marshmallows to the mixture at this point.
Pour the mixture into a 9x13 baking dish lined with parchment paper. For best results, lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray. Gently flatten the treat mixture with a rubber spatula, or grease your hands first and then use your fingers. Top the treats with extra marshmallows from the Monster Mash cereal!
Let the treats sit on the counter to cool completely, which takes about an hour.
Remove the treats from the baking dish, and cut them into 12 equal-sized bars. Store the Monster Mash Cereal Treats in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
