Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 (10 oz.) bag mini marshmallows
  • 1/3 cup Funfetti cake mix (you could also use yellow cake mix)
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 (1.75 oz.) container of sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat and add marshmallows.
  2. Stir until they begin to melt, adding in (dry) cake mix one spoonful at a time so its combined.
  3. Stir in cereal so it is completely coated with marshmallow mixture. Add in half of the sprinkles and mix.
  4. Press into a baking dish (I used a 9x13", but you could do a smaller pan for thicker rice krispies) and top with remaining sprinkles.
  5. Let sit for about 30 minutes before cutting.

    I can't taste the cake batter flavor at all. Has anyone tried adding more cake mix?

      Yes, but it made them kind of hard?

    I made these and they were terrible. The instructions are very easy and it is virtually impossible to make a human error. So I can only deduce that it is not a good idea to add dry cake mix to Rice Krispie Squares. The texture was hard and dense. It didn't have that airy crunchy feel. It was more like biting into one big mass of tough .....something. The taste was, for a lack of a better word, "synthetic". It tastes very "artificial"...like a mild food chemical taste. Like they tried to make an artificial flavoring that went horribly wrong. I though it was a waste of time and money. I tried to give them away, but after one bite, each person politely declined....even children and as my father always used to say, "Kids will eat manure if it has sugar on it!", but they didn't like these.

      I did not made these yet, but I have made cookies that use dry cake mix recipe and I found the same kind thing as you. I think it's because of the cake mix. It needs to have water to add to it. There must be some sort of science kind of thing.
