These Funfetti Rice Krispies birthday treats are a fun and colorful twist on the classic childhood favorite. They’re extra gooey and perfect for kids birthday parties or as a cute after school treat.
Coat the inside of a 9" x 13" baking dish with butter and set aside.
In a large dutch oven pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add 4 cups of mini marshmallows and stir until the marshmallows are almost all melted. Turn the heat off and stir in the vanilla extract.
In a large bowl, combine the Rice Krispies and the remaining 1½ cups of mini marshmallows and mix. Add the marshmallow mixture to the melted butter mixture and stir gently until combined. Finally, add the sprinkles and gently mix again.
Transfer into the prepared baking dish. Using the back of a spoon, spread the mixture evenly. Lightly wet or spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray and lightly pat down the Rice Krispies Treats.
Allow to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or until they hold their shape. Cut into 3" squares to serve. Enjoy!
