1 (10 oz) bag mini marshmallows
-
1–2 bananas (optional, for filling)
-
2–3 fruit roll-ups (any flavor, used as “seaweed” wraps)
-
½ cup Nutella or peanut butter (optional filling)
-
½ cup gummy candies or licorice strips (optional decoration)
Required Kitchen Tools
-
Large mixing bowl
-
Medium saucepan
-
Rubber spatula (greased with butter or nonstick spray)
-
Parchment paper or silicone mat
-
Rolling pin
-
Sharp knife (butter knife works if making with kids)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1: Melt the Base
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
-
Add the marshmallows and stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
2: Mix with Fruity Pebbles
-
Remove the saucepan from heat.
-
Pour in the Fruity Pebbles cereal.
-
Using a greased spatula, gently fold until the cereal is evenly coated.
3: Shape the Rice Base
-
Spread a sheet of parchment paper on a flat surface.
-
Transfer the cereal mixture onto the paper.
-
Place another sheet of parchment on top and use a rolling pin to flatten into a rectangle about ½ inch thick.
4: Add Fillings
-
Remove the top parchment paper.
-
Spread a thin layer of Nutella or peanut butter, if using.
-
Lay banana slices, gummy candies, or other fun fillings across the middle.
5: Roll the Sushi
-
Starting from one long side, carefully roll the Fruity Pebbles rectangle into a log, just like sushi.
-
Use the parchment paper to help guide the roll tightly without sticking.
6: Slice & Decorate
-
With a sharp knife, cut the roll into 1-inch slices.
-
Wrap each slice with a strip of fruit roll-up to mimic “seaweed.”
-
Add gummy candies on top for extra flair, if desired.
Helpful Tips
-
Grease is key: Coat your hands and spatula with butter or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
-
Work quickly: The mixture hardens fast, so shape and roll while it’s still warm.
-
Fun variations: Swap Fruity Pebbles for Cocoa Pebbles or mix in sprinkles for a rainbow twist.
-
Party-ready: Serve on a platter with chopsticks for a fun sushi-night theme.
-
