Stir and fold the marshmallows over the cereal until every piece is coated.

Pour the mixture into a pan that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.

Use a spatula to press the mixture down into the pan, optionally spraying your hands with non-stick cooking spray for easier handling.

Let the mixture cool before cutting into bars.

Optionally, dip the bars in melted chocolate or drizzle with white chocolate and sprinkle with sprinkles.
