If you’re always looking for ways to eat your cereal for more than just breakfast, you’re going to love the latest, strangest addition to the Lucky Charms lineup. Now, you can have cereal for dessert without even having to dirty a bowl — and it’s all thanks to the brand new Lucky Charms Soft Baked Treats in the Blondie Marshmallow flavor.
This is a new texture for cereal lovers to wrap their heads around.
Think cake-like blondies crammed with those famous, super-sweet marshmallow shapes and finished with a drizzle of frosting on the top. You’ll have to do some minor snooping to get them, since the bars are currently only available from a few places, including Amazon, Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Instacart (via BJ’s Wholesale Club.) Each bar weighs 0.82 oz — about half the size of a regular-sized candy bar — and you can get a box of 40 for between $22.99 to $26.99 plus shipping.

This isn’t the first chance we’ve had to enjoy Lucky Charms outside of a regular old box of cereal. General Mills also makes cereal bars called Lucky Charms Treats Bars, which are closer to granola bars than this new, more cakey option. And people outside of the cereal makers themselves have, of course, been inventing their own ways of getting their favorite cereal into other types of food.
The correct ratio of Lucky Charms to donut.
Make your birthday extra lucky.
Level up your standard Rice Krispies bars.
Who says cereal can’t be elegant?
A lucky take on a classic.
One of everything.
It’s not just independent bakers who love to add Lucky Charms to their desserts. In 2017, Burger King released a Lucky Charms-flavored milkshake, combining the cereal with their soft vanilla ice cream.
And apparently, it’s everything your inner child could wish for.
It may even be a better way to eat cereal.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be on the menu anymore — but the bright colors and sweetness have made Lucky Charms a fixture of so-called Monster Shakes: those enormous, multi-tiered drink desserts that have been all over Instagram.
Choose your favorite.
With extra marshmallows.
With extra everything.
Pastels are always in.

And if this is all making you feel too much like you never stopped being a cereal-mad kid, make it grown up with booze.
