Birthday Cake Rice Krispie Treats
This recipe will take your Rice Krispies Treats up a notch, or....ten!
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons (¾ stick) butter, divided
- two 10-ounce packages marshmallows (or 8 cups mini marshmallows), divided
- 1 cup white cake mix, divided
- 1 cup rainbow sprinkles, divided
- 12 cups Rice Krispies, divided
- 1 to 1½ cups white frosting
Instructions
- You're going to make two batches of Krispie Treats, then you can assemble this dessert.
- Make the first batch: Spray a 13x9 inch pan with nonstick spray. In a large pot, melt the butter and add the marshmallows. Stir over low heat until the marshmallows are melted. Remove from heat. Stir in ½ cup cake mix, ½ cup sprinkles and 6 cups Krispies. Stir until coated. Scape into your prepared pan and flatten with clean, lightly buttered hands until you have a nice, even layer. Let cool for a few minutes, then pop out the whole thing onto a large cutting board.
- Repeat: Spray the pan and prepare the second batch of treats. Add a few extra sprinkles on top of the 2nd batch. Be sure to press down to flatten and make even.
- Assemble: Spread the frosting onto the first layer. Remove the 2nd batch of treats and lay them on top of the frosting. Cut the two-layer treats into 2-inch squares. These should be served the same day, but keep leftovers in a plastic zip bag at room temperature for up to 2 days for munching.
