Use a small amount of butter to prepare the bottom and sides of a 13 x 9 inch dish. Set aside.
In a deep pot over low heat melt together remaining butter, light corn syrup and both packages strawberry marshmallows. Cook for 4-5 minutes stirring constantly until completely melted. Remove from the heat.
To the pot 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 Tbsp vegetable shortening in a microwave safe bowl in 20 second increments or using the melt function. Stop and stir each time. Repeat until smooth.
Use a round cookie or biscuit cutter to cut into round or your desired shape. Frost each with white chocolate. Decorate with sprinkles.

Freeze dried strawberries are readily available at big box stores i.e. Target or online. Strawberry marshmallows can be found at Walmart.
