Tips and Tricks

  • To prevent the treats from sticking to your spoon, lightly spritz your spoon with non stick spray before stirring the cereal into the marshmallow mixture.
  • Make sure you are using a large mug not a smaller teacup sized mug.
  • Microwaves vary in their wattage so make sure to keep an eye on the marshmallows. Pull the mug out of the microwave when the marshmallows are puffy.
