Ingredients
  

For the Uramaki
  • 3 cups crisped rice cereal
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 box pink chewy fruit candies (like Starburst)
  • 1 box rainbow Nerds candy
  • Non-stick spray For preventing sticking during preparation

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Melt the mini marshmallows in a pot over low heat or in the microwave until smooth and fully melted.
  2. Add the crisped rice cereal and mix until evenly coated and sticky.
  3. Lightly spray your hands or a spatula with non-stick spray.
  4. Press the mixture flat onto parchment paper, forming a rectangle.
  5. Sprinkle a thick layer of rainbow Nerds candy over the surface and press them firmly into the mixture.
  6. Carefully flip the cereal sheet so the Nerds are on the outside.
  7. Place a row of pink chewy candies across the center.
  8. Gently roll the mixture into a tight log, similar to sushi.
  9. Let it set slightly to hold its shape, then slice into thick rounds.

Notes

Tips for best results: Spray your knife before cutting to keep slices clean, press the Nerds firmly so they don’t fall off, work while the mixture is still warm and flexible, and let it cool slightly before slicing for better shape.
