Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cotton candy
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup rice cereal

Butter Mixture

  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, gently combine the cotton candy, mini marshmallows, and rice cereal to ensure an even mixture.
  2. Prepare Butter Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Mix Wet and Dry: Pour the butter and powdered sugar mixture over the cotton candy mixture and stir gently until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Press Into Dish: Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, pressing it down firmly to create an even layer.
  5. Cool and Set: Allow the mixture to cool and set for about 30 minutes until firm enough to cut.
  6. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut into squares and serve immediately for a delightful airy snack.

Notes

  • Use a greased spatula or your hands to press the mixture into the dish to prevent sticking.
  • For added flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the butter mixture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain freshness.
  • You can substitute mini marshmallows with regular marshmallows cut into smaller pieces if mini are unavailable.
  • Be gentle when mixing to preserve the cotton candy’s delicate texture and airiness.
