- Transfer the cereal mixture to the prepared pan and spread out in an even layer. Press it down gently, careful not to overpack it.
- Let the lucky charms treats rest until completely cooled and mostly set.
- Using the edges of the parchment paper remove the cereal slab from the pan and transfer to a cutting board.
- Carefully cut into squares using a sharp knife, and serve.
Notes
- You don't have to spray the pan with cooking spray but it really helps keep the parchment paper in place, especially when spreading the sticky cereal mixture out.
- Be careful not to crush the cereal when stirring.
- When pressing the cereal mixture into the baking dish, be careful not to pack it down too much. You want chewy cereal bars, not rock hard ones.
- To make a copycat General Mill's Lucky Charms breakfast cereal treat bars, dip the bottoms of the set cereal bars in melted white chocolate.
