Notes
It’s ok if butter isn’t fully melted, it will melt when added to marshmallows.
Add food coloring to the marshmallows before adding cereal if you want to be precise in the green you wish to achieve.
Microwaves differ, so you may need more or less time depending on yours. Just pay careful attention.
