Today we made cereal treats out of fruity pebbles. These are delicious, but also very pretty.

I just used the basic Rice Krispie Treat recipe from Kellogg’s and substituted Rice Krispies with Fruity Pebbles.

First, we melted 3 tablespoons of butter on the stove.

Most of what I enjoyed about this “recipe” was spending time with my daughter, telling her about each step. I also thoroughly enjoyed photographing the steps of this process because fruity pebbles are pretty and I love the art that goes into food preparation.
