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 the Pan: Prepare an 8-9″ loaf pan by lining it with foil and spraying lightly with cooking spray.
- Divide the Peeps: Divide the Peeps by 10s of the same color (use any colors you like).
- Melt the Peeps and Butter: In a deep, medium-sized microwaveable dish, microwave 10 Peeps of the same color with 1 tablespoon of butter on high for 45 seconds. Watch closely so the Peeps don’t flow over the sides of the bowl. Stir the butter and Peeps together until fully melted and incorporated.
- Mix with Cereal: Stir in 1 ½ cups of cereal until fully coated. Press firmly into the loaf pan.
- Repeat Layers: Repeat steps 3 and 4 with the other Peeps colors.
- Cool and Serve: Allow to cool completely (1-2 hours) before slicing and serving.
