Made these a couple of weekends ago for a friend. They are so easy to prepare and oh so cute!

They were a bit too sweet to my taste (is that possible??!!) but I am sure kids would love these!!

Cake Batter Crispy Treats
howsweeteats.com

3 tablespoons butter
1 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows
1/4 cup yellow cake mix
6 cups rice krispies cereal
1 1.75-ounce container of sprinkles

Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat and add marshmallows. Stir until they begin to melt, adding in cake mix one spoonful at a time so its combined. Stir in cereal so it is completely coated with marshmallow mixture. Sprinkle in half of the sprinkles and mix. Press into a baking dish (any size will do) and top with remaining sprinkles. Let sit for about 30 minutes before cutting. I find spraying a knife with nonstick spray helps to cut them.

I used a mix of blue, red and pink sprinkles!

My kids used to love these when they were younger, but they haven't asked for these in a long time. Maybe it's time to make them a batch!
