Bake Sale Marshmallow Treats - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, divided
1 (10.5 ounce) package miniature marshmallows
2 cups crispy rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies(R))
2 cups brown sugar and butter-flavored breakfast cereal (such as Cap'n Crunch(R))

Melt remaining butter in a non-stick stock pot over medium heat; add marshmallows and cook, stirring frequently, until the marshmallows are melted, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
Stir crispy rice cereal, brown sugar and butter-flavored breakfast cereal, and fruit flavored breakfast cereal into the marshmallow mixture to coat; pour into the prepared baking dish and press flat.
