  • Total Time: 1 hour 12 minutes
  • Yield: 24 squares 1x

Ingredients

Scale

250 grams all-purpose flour for structure and texture

150 milliliters olive oil for moisture and richness

2 teaspoons salt for enhancing taste

1 cup chopped vegetables for crunch and color variation

500 grams protein source for substance

3 packets unflavored gelatin for marshmallow base

1 cup cold water for blooming gelatin

2 cups granulated sugar for sweetness

1 cup light corn syrup for binding

1/4 cup additional water for base liquid

1 tablespoon vanilla extract for flavor

23 cups crushed Fruity Pebbles cereal for color, taste, and crunch

powdered sugar for dusting and preventing sticking

Instructions

1-First Step: Mix the dry ingredients by combining 250 grams of all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons of salt in a large bowl, stirring until evenly blended for a solid base.

2-Second Step: Incorporate the liquids by adding 150 milliliters of olive oil slowly into the dry mixture, stirring thoroughly to create a smooth, cohesive dough-like consistency.

3-Third Step: Add 1 cup of chopped vegetables and 500 grams of protein source to the mixture, folding them in gently to distribute evenly without overmixing.

4-Fourth Step: For the marshmallow element, bloom 3 packets of unflavored gelatin in 1 cup of cold water and set aside, while heating 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup additional water in a saucepan to 240ยฐF, stirring occasionally.

5-Fifth Step: Pour the hot sugar mixture into the bloomed gelatin, add 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, and whip with a mixer for 8-10 minutes until fluffy and forming stiff peaks.

6-Final Step: Fold in 2-3 cups of crushed Fruity Pebbles cereal gently, then spread the mixture into a pan dusted with powdered sugar. Let it set for 4-6 hours, and cook any combined elements for about 20 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius to achieve the desired texture and flavor before cutting into squares for serving. This step ensures a perfect blend of crunch and softness, ready to enjoy!

Notes

๐ŸŒˆ For the most vibrant colors, avoid overmixing the cereal into the marshmallow mixture – gentle folding helps maintain the bright colors of the Fruity Pebbles without making them mushy.
๐Ÿงˆ Use real butter instead of margarine for better flavor and texture, and make sure your butter is at room temperature so it melts evenly with the marshmallows.
โœจ To prevent sticking when cutting, spray your knife with cooking spray or dip it in hot water before each cut – this will give you clean, perfect squares every time.
