Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 bags crunchy Cheetos (7 oz. each) Each crispy piece brings a vibrant orange color and cheesy crunch.
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter Adds a creamy texture to the marshmallow mixture.
  • 1 bag miniature marshmallows (10 oz.) Melt perfectly to create a gooey consistency.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper to help remove the treats easily later.
  2. In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat.
Cooking
  1. Once the butter is melted, add the miniature marshmallows to the pot, stirring constantly until completely melted and smooth.
  2. Remove the pot from heat and quickly fold in the crunchy Cheetos, ensuring all are coated with the marshmallow mixture.
  3. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it down evenly using a spatula or dampened hands.
  4. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cutting them into squares.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for about 3-4 days, using parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Work quickly when mixing in Cheetos as marshmallows begin to set as they cool. For extra crispiness, use less marshmallow or add more Cheetos. Variations include using different cheese puff flavors or mixing in sprinkles or nuts.
