Ingredients
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- 4 cups crispy rice cereal
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup colored candy-coated chocolate (e.g., mini M&Ms)
- 0.5 cup sprinkles
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 drops food coloring (optional)
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Grease a large mixing bowl and a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Step 3
Once the butter is fully melted, add the mini marshmallows to the saucepan. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and, if desired, a few drops of food coloring to the melted marshmallows. Stir until the color is evenly distributed.
Step 5
Remove the melted marshmallow mixture from heat and immediately pour it over the crispy rice cereal in the prepared mixing bowl.
Step 6
Using a spatula coated with cooking spray, fold the mixture together until the cereal is fully coated in the marshmallow mixture.
Step 7
Gently fold in the candy-coated chocolate and sprinkles, being careful not to crush them.
Step 8
Transfer the mixture to the greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Use the greased spatula (or your hands, coated lightly with cooking spray) to press the mixture down evenly into the pan.
Step 9
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm and set.
Step 10
Cut the cooled mixture into fun, 'lump' shapes—use cookie cutters for extra flair or simply cut them into irregular pieces with a knife.
Step 11
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
