Step 1: Prepare Baking Dish
Grab a 9×13-inch baking dish and give it a generous coating of cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking. This will make your treats easy to remove later.
Step 2: Create Marshmallow Base
Fire up a large pot on low heat and melt the butter until it’s smooth and silky. Toss in the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until they transform into a creamy, gooey mixture.
For an extra flavor boost, splash in some vanilla extract and give it a quick mix.
Step 3: Fold in Cereal Magic
Take the pot off the heat and gently introduce the Lucky Charms to the marshmallow wonderland.
Carefully fold the cereal into the mixture, ensuring every colorful piece gets a perfect marshmallow coating.
Step 4: White Chocolate Drizzle
Grab your white chocolate chips and send them for a quick spin in the microwave.
Heat in short 30-second bursts, stirring between each interval until the chocolate becomes smooth and glossy. Pour the melted white chocolate over your cereal mixture, either drizzling artfully or mixing it completely through.
Step 5: Set and Shape
Transfer the dreamy mixture into your prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or clean hands to press the treats down evenly, creating a smooth surface.
Let the treats rest and set for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
Step 6: Slice and Serve
Once set, slice the treats into square pieces.
Your magical White Chocolate Lucky Charms Treats are ready to delight taste buds and bring smiles to faces!
