Equipment

1 9×9 baking dish
1 large pot
1 spatula

Ingredients

3 tbsp butter
6 cups mini marshmallows
3 cups Cocoa Pebbles cereal
2 scoops unflavored whey protein
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

Melt butter in a large pot over low heat.
Once butter is melted, add marshmallows and stir. Remove from heat when the marshmallows are smooth and all lumps are gone.
Combine protein powder and mix with a spatula. Make sure to work quickly, because the marshmallows will begin to harden.
Finally, add Cocoa Pebbles and mix until everything is combined.
Transfer mixture into a 9×9 pan sprayed with cooking oil. Use a spatula and scrape any remaining mixture out from the bowl.
Use the back of a spoon, or your hands to press the mixture into the pan. Allow it to sit for 30 minutes, before cutting up the bars.

Notes

You will find that the Cocoa Pebbles and marshmallows will be very sticky. Try lightly wetting your hands if you’re having trouble transferring the mixture into a pan.

You can also spray a piece of parchment paper and place it over the mixture. Press your hands over the mixture, spreading it out evenly in the pan. This will make things easier, because parchment paper will act as a barrier between the mixture and your hands.
