Start by melting the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add in the marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. You can also add in some food coloring at this stage if you want to make your treats more colorful.
Next, add in the crispy rice cereal and mix until well combined. Pour the mixture onto a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and press it down evenly using a spatula or your hands.
Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes before using the Easter egg-shaped cookie cutter to cut out your treats. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Now comes the fun part - decorating! Melt some additional marshmallows in the microwave and use it as "glue" to attach your sprinkles and candies onto the treats. Get creative and make each one unique.
Let the treats set for about 30 minutes before serving. You can also wrap them individually in plastic wrap and give them as Easter gifts to friends and family.
Not only are these treats delicious, but they are also a great way to get the whole family involved in the Easter preparations. Kids will love helping out with the decorating and the end result is sure to impress everyone.
Additionally, these treats are a great alternative to traditional Easter candy. They are easy to make and can be customized with different colors and toppings to fit any Easter theme or preference.
