Funfetti® Cake Batter Rice Krispies® Treats

Funfetti® Cake Batter Rice Krispies® Treats

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 package (10 oz) mini marshmallows (about 40 marshmallows)
  • ½ cup Funfetti® cake mix
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies® cereal
  • ½ cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Additional sprinkles for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add in the mini marshmallows. Stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
  2. Remove the pot from the heat. Carefully stir in the Funfetti® cake mix until it’s well combined. This gives a delicious cake batter flavor to the treats!
  3. Add the Rice Krispies® cereal to the mixture, and fold gently until the cereal is fully coated. Make sure to be gentle so you don’t crush the cereal too much.
  4. Mix in the rainbow sprinkles for that festive touch. You can adjust the amount based on your preference!
  5. Once everything is combined, transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Use a spatula or your hands (lightly greased) to press the mixture evenly into the pan. Don’t press too hard, as you want to maintain some of that crispy texture.
  6. If desired, sprinkle a few extra rainbow sprinkles on top for that visually appealing finish.
  7. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until set. Once cooled, cut into squares or rectangles.
  8. Enjoy your Funfetti® Cake Batter Rice Krispies® Treats at your next gathering, or keep them for a sweet snack just for yourself!

These treats are not only fun to make but also a wonderful treat for kids and adults alike. The combination of marshmallows, butter, and cereal creates that classic gooey-but-crispy texture we all love, while the cake mix and sprinkles add color and flavor that make these Rice Krispies® Treats a fabulous addition to any dessert table.
