Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
  • 10 oz marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 sheets fruit roll-ups (your favorite flavors)
  • 2 ripe bananas, peeled
  • 1-2 tablespoons chocolate syrup (optional for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marshmallow base: Place a large pot over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely to create a smooth base for melting the marshmallows.
  2. Melt marshmallows: Add all marshmallows to the melted butter and stir continuously for 5-7 minutes until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy while ensuring it doesn’t burn. Remove the pot from heat immediately once melted.
  3. Combine cereal and marshmallow: Immediately pour in all 4 cups of Fruity Pebbles cereal and stir vigorously until every piece is completely coated with the marshmallow mixture. Work quickly as the mixture begins to firm up upon cooling.
  4. Cool the mixture: Allow the coated cereal mixture to cool for 5-10 minutes until it is cool enough to handle but still pliable.
  5. Prepare the fruit roll-up base: Lay the fruit roll-ups flat on a clean surface and smooth out any wrinkles to prepare for rolling.
  6. Shape cereal rectangles and add banana: Take portions of the cooled cereal mixture and shape them into rectangles matching the width of the fruit roll-ups. Place one peeled banana at the edge of each rectangle, positioning it straight to ensure even slices later.
  7. Roll sushi: Carefully roll the cereal rectangle around the banana, then use the fruit roll-up to wrap and seal the roll. Apply gentle pressure to ensure it sticks securely.
  8. Slice into sushi pieces: Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 1-inch thick bite-sized pieces. Clean the knife between cuts to prevent sticking and maintain clean edges. Each roll yields about 6-8 pieces depending on banana size.
  9. Add finishing touches: Optionally drizzle chocolate syrup over the sushi pieces in decorative patterns to add extra sweetness and visual appeal.
  10. Serve: Arrange the colorful sushi pieces on a serving platter and enjoy this playful and tasty treat.

Notes

  • Work quickly when mixing cereal with marshmallow to prevent the mixture from setting too soon.
  • Use ripe bananas for a creamy, sweet filling but handle gently to prevent bruising.
  • If fruit roll-ups do not stick firmly, a small dab of water can help seal the edges.
  • Chocolate syrup is optional but adds a nice finishing touch both taste-wise and visually.
  • Cleanup tip: Oil your knife lightly or clean frequently to prevent sticky residue buildup during slicing.
