Jones
Remember cereal bars? These bars are a combination of a Rice Krispies bar, a cereal bar, and Neapolitan ice cream. The best combination for a gooey, chewy dessert bar.

Equipment

  • A 9x9 baking dish
  • Pre-cut parchment paper
  • Microwave safe mixing bowls
  • A rubber spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons strawberry powder
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • A 16 ounce bag of marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 3 cups gluten-free cereal

Instructions
 

  • Line a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Divide the marshmallows into three microwave-safe bowls. Add a tablespoon of butter to each bowl. Microwave on high for two minutes.
  • Take the bowls out of the microwave and stir until smooth. Add the strawberry powder to one bowl and the cocoa powder to another bowl. Leave one bowl plain.
  • Pour 1 cup of cereal into each bowl and stir to combine.
  • Press the plain cereal mixture into the bottom of the baking pan. Then, press the chocolate cereal mixture on top of the first layer. Finish by pressing the strawberry layer on top of the chocolate layer.

  • Lift the parchment paper to release the bars from the pan and cut in squares.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Dip your fingers in ice water before pressing each layer into the pan. This prevents sticking!
