Spoon
Directions
1. In a mixing bowl, add the marshmallows and butter. Heat the bowl on high in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until the mixture is smooth and softened. Stir in between heating.
2. While the mixture is still warm, stir in the cereal. Fold it into the marshmallow and butter mixture until coated well.
3. Again while the mixture is still warm, add a few drops of food coloring. Stir so that the color distributes. The more you add, the darker the hue will be.
4. Once the mixture is able to be handled, use a spoon and clean hands to fold it into ball shapes.
5. Place the lucky leprechaun cereal balls into cupcake cups for easy handling and eating.
