Ingredients

  • 2 cups cut-up fresh strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 bag (10 oz) large marshmallows or 4 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Chex™ cereal
  • 2 1/2 cups cubed (1 inch) angel food cake
  • 2 cups frozen (thawed) whipped topping

Preparation

Step 1

1 Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish or pan with cooking spray.

2 Toss strawberries with sugar; set aside.

3 In large microwavable bowl, microwave butter uncovered on High about 45 seconds or until melted. Add marshmallows; toss to coat. Microwave 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds longer. Stir until marshmallows are completely melted and mixture is well blended.

4 Add cereal; mix well. Add angel food cubes; mix well.

5 Using waxed paper or spatula sprayed with cooking spray, press mixture evenly into baking dish. Cool 15 minutes.

6 For bars, cut into 6 rows by 3 rows. Top each with 1 tablespoon whipped topping and some strawberries. Serve immediately.

This is a great recipe for using up those last couple pieces of angel food cake.

If mixture is difficult to press into pan, slightly dampen fingers with water.
