cheesecakes topped with lucky charms shown with a title

With 4 kids (although they’re nearly grown) Lucky Charms has always been a favorite around here!  Even now, I still eat it..  and I still eat the cereal first and save the marshmallows until the end.

This Lucky Charms Cheesecake is one of the most unique cheesecakes I’ve ever had!

A crushed lucky charms crust topped with cereal and marshmallow infused cheesecake and whipped topping!  It’s like having “cereal milk” served in a cheesecake.

  1. Does anyone know if the marshmallows get soft? I don’t really want to be biting into a nice soft cheesecake and then crunching into a marshmallow. I’d kinda like the textures to be somewhat similar…

    Also, how many cupcakes does this make? I’m doing mini cupcakes, and I have to make 50-60, so I’m trying to figure out how many batches I need to make…

    Thanks!!!!!!!

    1. They do soften, you won’t be biting into crunchy marshmallows. :) This makes 12 cupcakes so I would think a single batch would make about 24 mini cupcakes.

  2. Anyone know if I can make this as a pie?? I assume I could I’m just not an experienced dessert maker. Anything I should know if I do make pie?
