Ok, so I have a little secret for you today.  Maybe I’ve told you before…I don’t remember.  Anywhoo, my secret is…  I have a secret stash.  It is a stash of yummy treats that My Better Half and I can enjoy at our leisure, without worrying about our scavengers kiddos scarfing ’em down before we even get a chance.  Since I’m not ALL selfish, I do have things in there for them too, I just like to hang on to them until the right moment and then surprise them.  A couple weeks ago I found a really good deal on one the kids’ favorite cereal…Lucky Charms.  I knew if I left them in the cabinet, the box would be gone by the next morning.  I’m not kidding here…they will eat a box of cereal in ONE sitting.  Oh, I guess if you don’t know about my kiddos, maybe I should clarify.  I have three teenage boys, two of which are over 6 feet tall and 200 pounds and I have one Princess who likes to eat as much as the boys do.  SO, that should justify explain to you why I need a secret stash and why I put the Lucky Charms in the secret stash.

Anywhoo, today all four of the kids were going skiing together and needed some snacks to take with them so I pulled the special cereal out of the stash and whipped up these Lucky Charm Marshmallow Treats.  When I’ve made marshmallow treats in the past, I’ve always used Rice Krispies.  I didn’t have any of those on hand and knew that the Lucky Charms would make them even more “magically delicious” and I was right!!

I made these just like the other marshmallow treats I usually make…marshmallows, butter, cereal.  The prep time is only about 5 minutes and then letting them sit to firm up in the pan takes about 30-45 minutes.  After that, I had a sweet and cute and treat for the kids to take with them on their active day.

These treats are so fast, easy, and require such few ingredients.  I’ll definitely be making them again.  Next time though, I may see what other special cereals I have hidden in my secret stash to try in these marshmallow treats!
