Ingredients

• 8 tablespoon butter divided
• 3 tablespoon light corn syrup
• 2 8 oz packages strawberry marshmallows
• 8 cups crispy rice cereal
• 1 (1) oz package freeze dried strawberries *see cook's note
• 1 cup mini marshmallows
• 1 12 oz package white chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoon solid vegetable shortening
• pink sprinkles or edible glitter

Instructions

• Use 1 tablespoon softened butter to butter the bottom and sides of a 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Set aside.
• In a deep pot over low heat, melt together 7 tablespoon butter, light corn syrup and both packages strawberry marshmallows. Cook for 4-5 minutes stirring constantly until completely melted.
• Add crispy rice cereal, dried strawberries and 1 cup mini marshmallows. Use a non-stick spatula or a spoon spritzed with cooking spray to stir until evenly coated.
• Work quickly pressing the mixture into the buttered pan. Spritz the back of a spoon or spatula with cooking spray to press to avoid sticking. Let cool and set-up for at least 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, melt white chocolate with 2 tablespoon vegetable shortening in a microwave safe bowl in 20 second increments. Stop and stir each time. Repeat until smooth.
• Cut the krispie treats into desired shapes, and frost with white chocolate. Decorate with sprinkles.
