Let me take you back to my childhood again today because for the first time in 10+ years, I bought Fruit Loops. I think I forgot how much I loved them! I decided to add a little color to a classic recipe and made these Fruit Loops cheesecake bars! It gave me a great excuse to buy one of my childhood cereals, and I continued to snack on the cereal while I worked (naturally). Think of these like half no-bake cheesecake bars and half Fruit Loops marshmallow treats. Trust me, it’s a delicious combo!
Personally, I think Fruit Loops is one of those cereals that tastes best on it’s own, milk free. I prefer to just crunch on it like a snack. Anyone else?!
I also continued to snack on them once I slathered them in marshmallow like Rice Krispie treats. #noshame

Trust me, these cheesecake bars with a buttery crushed Fruit Loops crust, no-bake cheesecake filling and gooey Fruit Loops topping are definitely going to please your inner child.
I actually tried something different with these cheesecake bars. Recently, I shared my banana split cheesecake, which included a simple, classic no-bake cheesecake recipe, so I thought I’d test a new technique for this one. Instead of making cheesecake from scratch, I used a powdered no-bake cheesecake mix. It felt a little weird making cheesecake this way, BUT it was incredibly easy and still tasted like classic cheesecake! If you’re in a time crunch, I’d totally recommend trying the box mix. The only downside is the artificial ingredients…which is why I do normally make things from scratch.
Eh, I try these things so that you can make more informed decisions, right?
