- After that 30 seconds, stir them together again.
- Keep doing the 30 second heat, then stir until your marshmallows are fully melted.
- Now, take your pink food coloring and add some to your marshmallows.
- Stir the food coloring in and add more if you want a darker/different color. note: when you add the cereal in the next step it will lighten your color some, so you may want the color a littler darker than your desired end color.
- Measure 6 cups of rice krispie cereal.
- Slowly pour some of the cereal into your pink marshmallows.
- Stir the cereal in, then pour in more. Continue this until you have mixed all the cereal in well.
