Three favorite cereals go into these marshmallow treats. I use the basic Rice Krispies treat recipe and add Cap'n Crunch and Froot Loops. They are pretty and so tasty; they are always the first to go at our school bake sale!

Stir crispy rice cereal, brown sugar and butter-flavored breakfast cereal, and fruit flavored breakfast cereal into the marshmallow mixture to coat; pour into the prepared baking dish and press flat.
