See my secret to making these fun Trix Krispie Treats bars (mess free)! Yummy non-traditonal marshmallow Krispie treats recipe with your favorite fruity cereal! For more fun treats like this one see my desserts page.

Fruity Trix Krispie Treats Bars Recipe

We first saw these yummy cereal bars at a candy shop while on vacation. These are a great alternative to the regular rice krispie treats and would make a good breakfast bar for picky eaters. 

Trix Krispie Treats

Just like rice krispies treats, these Trix krispie treats are so simple to make. So simple in fact that it makes this a kid-friendly recipe.

Less Mess Krispy Treats

I’ll admit I do not make Krispie treats very often for the very reason that my kitchen turns into a glue factory. Yuck, everything including the pan is a sticky marshmallow disaster.

So What’s the Trick?

One way to keep the mess of making Krispie treats to a minimum is to wear gloves rubbed with butter while handling the cereal marshmallow mix.

Using the buttered glove method makes mixing these treats a little more bearable with less mess. I hope you enjoy one of families favorite treats!

Trix Krispie Treats

Yield: 12 people
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Mix up your regular Krispy Treats with Trix cereal bars!

Ingredients

  • 1 16 oz bag of mini marshmallows
  • 10.7 oz box of Trix cereal
  • 1/4 cup butter

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter and entire bag of marshmallows in a large saucepan over medium to low heat.
  2. Mix in your Trix and stir to coat cereal.
  3. Pour into a large greased pan (9 x 13) and press down with a greased gloved hand or spoon.
  4. Put in refrigerator for 20 minutes then cut into squares.

Notes

Cooking Tip** I use {powder-free} latex gloves greased with butter to touch and press down on the crispy treats. I find it to be the least messy way to make these, especially with kids.**

      Hi Natalie,
      The ounces for the marshmallows is a 16 oz bag. As for the cups, the cereal is bigger than the normal Rice Krispy version. My advice to you is to make the first batch and go by the size of the treat you want to make. You can make them tall/thick or thin. It has been a while since I made this recipe and I think I used the entire box. It is the smaller box of cereal. I hope this helps.

    We celebrated my son’s 30th birthday party two weeks ago and somebody brought Trix Marshmallow Treats. Everybody exclaimed how good they were and I thought so too. Bake Sale at church tomorrow and I am donating Trix Marshallow Treats to the sale. :)

    I love these! We don’t always have Trix where I live, but sometimes they come out as a special promotion, so I am pinning this for later. I wonder if it would work with any other cereal?
