Making strawberry fluff is easy and adds delicious flavor and a bit of texture to these Apple Cinnamon Cheerios snacks. If you do not care for strawberry fluff or want a healthier twist on this snack recipe, you can easily use vanilla or strawberry yogurt in place of the marshmallow fluff.
4 oz cream cheese
7 oz Jet Puff marshmallow creme
To make the strawberry fluff, blend cream cheese, and marshmallow creme by hand until combined.
Strawberry Topping Ingredients and Directions:
16 oz organic strawberries (cleaned and hulled)
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 cup water
2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon
Place strawberries in a large bowl. Sprinkle with sugar and add water & lemon, and
begin to mash with potato masher until blended.
1/2 dozen green apples
Slice the green apples to desired thickness with a sharp chef’s knife or paring knife. Remove the core and seed from the middle part of each slice. To prevent browning of apple place the apple slices in 1/2 teaspoon salt to 1 quart of water for about 3-5 minutes.
Lay the apples on a flat surface to dry for a few minutes. Then spread the marshmallow fluff over the sliced apple and add a layer of strawberry topping.
Finally, add Apple Cinnamon Cheerios or desired Cheerios cereal to the top for
crunch and added nutrition.
