Instructions

Grease and line a 9 x 9 pan with wax paper or foil along the bottom and two sides of the pan. Scoop out 1 cup (36 g) of Lucky Charms cereal and set aside the marshmallows for topping later. Add the remaining cereal to a large bowl.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add in the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until they are mostly melted.
Once the marshmallows are mostly melted, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt, then add the rice krispies and lucky charms cereal into the pot or a large bowl. Mix until combined.
Scoop and press the cereal mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Add the reserved Lucky Charms marshmallows on top. Allow it to set for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For best results, ensure that the butter and marshmallows are melted slowly over low heat to avoid burning.
Store leftover treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
