Instructions

Make the crust: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the Fruity Pebbles cereal, mini marshmallows, and unsalted butter. Microwave uncovered on high for 2-3 minutes until the marshmallows puff up and soften.
Mix and form crust: Remove from microwave and stir well to coat all the cereal in the melted marshmallows and butter. Transfer the sticky mixture into a lightly sprayed or buttered pie plate, pressing it firmly into the bottom and up the sides to create an even crust. Set aside to firm.
Prepare cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth. Add the marshmallow creme and mix well to combine.
Add cereal to filling: Gently fold in the 1 ½ cups of lightly chopped Fruity Pebbles cereal until evenly distributed throughout the cheesecake filling.
Assemble cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula to create an even layer. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to set, or for a quicker option, freeze for about 30 minutes.
Garnish and serve: Before serving, optionally sprinkle extra Fruity Pebbles cereal or colorful sprinkles on top for added flair and crunch.

Notes

Use a microwave-safe bowl and monitor closely when melting marshmallows to prevent burning.
For best texture, press the crust firmly and chill the cheesecake well to ensure it holds together when sliced.
You can swap Fruity Pebbles with other colorful puffed cereals if desired.
Marshmallow creme adds additional sweetness and fluffiness in the filling—do not skip if possible.
This cheesecake is best served chilled but should be brought to room temperature for a few minutes before slicing to enhance creaminess.
