My kids have been asking for sometime to try Lucky Charms cereal and this morning I surprised them with a box! As they enjoy breakfast they have created different ways to eat this cereal. They dump the cereal out, sort it by marshmallows, trade marshmallows, play tic-tac-toe all while eating and chatting!
It has become the most entertaining cereal in the house! Hopefully after the box is finished they can become just as easily entertained with Cheerios!
I was able to sneak some cereal away to create these Lucky Charms Popcorn bars! Lucky Charms cereal, marshmallows, and microwave popcorn come together to create this sweet and salty treat! To add some extra sweetness I drizzled white chocolate and sprinkled some shamrocks on these lucky charms popcorn bars!
This sweet and salty popcorn bar is chewy, crunchy and delicious! The added white chocolate drizzle and sprinkles finishes the yummy look of these Lucky Charm popcorn bars!

Notes
Cook’s Notes: When the popcorn is in the bowl, I take a Tablespoon and I go fishing for all the kernels. This way no one loses a tooth when biting into a bar! 🙂
