Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine the marshmallows and butter. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute. Add 5 cups of cereal and stir until full mixed. Spoon into the bottom of a greased 8-inch springform pan, pressing down around the edges to create a smooth surface. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill for about 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk the cream cheese and lemon juice until combined. Add the cream, vanilla, and sugar and mix until smooth and silky with soft peaks.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture on top of the rice cereal and marshmallow base, using a spatula to smooth the top. Chill for at least 3 hours.
- Release the springform and decorate the top of the cake with the remaining cup of rice cereal. Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!
