This fun and colorful dessert combines creamy cheesecake with the nostalgic crunch of Fruity Pebbles®, making it a perfect treat for both kids and adults. It’s easy to make and sure to brighten up any gathering!
Start by melting the butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Once melted, add the marshmallows and stir until they’ve completely melted, which should take about 5 minutes. Then, toss in the Fruity Pebbles and mix everything together until the cereal is well coated. Press this mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan and pop it in the fridge for about 20 minutes to set.
While the crust chills, beat the cream cheese in a bowl with an electric mixer until it’s nice and smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and keep mixing. Stir in a cup of the cereal to add some texture. In a separate small bowl, combine the hot water and gelatin, stirring until the gelatin is dissolved. Pour this into the cream cheese mixture and mix until everything is creamy and well blended.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, smoothing it out, then refrigerate for at least two hours so it can set properly. Just before serving, crush the rest of the Fruity Pebbles and sprinkle them on top for a fun, colorful finish.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother batter.
- Press the crust firmly into the pan to prevent it from crumbling.
- Chill the cheesecake well before serving to help it set perfectly.
This dessert brings a fun twist to a classic favorite. The crunchy, colorful cereal adds a playful texture and bright flavor that kids and adults will both enjoy. It’s a great way to make cheesecake feel fresh and exciting.
Serve chilled with a sprinkle of extra Fruity Pebbles® on top for added crunch. Pair it with fresh berries or a drizzle of honey to balance the sweetness. It’s a great dessert for parties or special occasions.
Keep the cheesecake covered in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. It can last up to 4 days when stored properly. For longer storage, freeze it wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and thaw in the fridge before serving.
