• In a medium saucepan over low heat melt together the butter, peanut butter & butterscotch chips.
• Stir occasionally until the mixture is smooth.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Stir in the marshmallows.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and set in the fridge to harden (about 1-2 hours).

RAINBOW CONFETTI MARSHMALLOW POPCORN TREATS

Steps:

• Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Melt the butter in a large stock pot over medium-low heat. Carefully stir in the vanilla extract (it will spatter), then add the marshmallows and cook, stirring, until smooth, about 5 minutes. Stir in the popcorn and 1/4 cup of the sprinkles until the popcorn is well coated, then immediately pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it firmly into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup sprinkles on top.
• Let the treats sit for 20 minutes then slice into squares or bars and serve.

RAINBOW CRISPY TREATS

Steps:

• Thoroughly grease a straight-sided 9-inch square cake pan with butter.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot set over medium heat. Cook, swirling the butter around in the pot, until it foams and turns a medium golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the regular marshmallows and stir until they're completely melted. Add the salt and give it another stir.
• Remove the pot from the heat and pour in the cereal. Gently fold it into the marshmallow until well combined. Next, add the mini rainbow marshmallows and fold them into the mix. Some will melt, but some will remain whole; that is the way you want it.
• Turn the mixture into the buttered cake pan and press flat using a wooden spoon or spatula. Sprinkle with the rainbow sprinkles over the top while it is still warm. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• When the crispy treats are cool, place the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over boiling water. Heat, stirring, until the chocolate is melted and completely smooth. Set aside for a minute to cool.
• Drizzle the white chocolate over the cooled crispy treats and let the chocolate set for 5 minutes. Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares.

RAINBOW CONFETTI BIRTHDAY PIE

Steps:

• For the crust and filling: Spray a 9-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Melt the butter in a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring, until melted. Add the fruity cereal and mix until completely coated. Transfer to the prepared pie pan and press the mixture into the pan to form a crust. Let cool completely.
• Spread the ice cream over the crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Freeze until hardened, 4 to 6 hours.
• For the garnish: In a chilled large metal bowl, combine the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla. Whip the cream with a whisk or hand mixer to medium peaks.
• Vigorously shake the shell topping sauce and pour about 1/2 cup over the ice cream. Let set. Using a 2-inch ice cream scoop, place scoops of the whipped cream around the edge of the pie. Sprinkle each whipped cream scoop with rainbow sprinkles. Hold in the freezer until ready to serve.

PUMPKIN PIE CRISPY RICE TREATS

Steps:

• For the crust: Coat an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray. Set it aside.
• Add the butter to a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until the marshmallows are melted. Stir in the vanilla extract and then the crispy rice cereal until the cereal is well coated.
• Transfer the mixture into the prepared cake pan and press it firmly against the inside edge of the pan to form about a 1-inch crust. Let it cool while you prepare the filling.
• For the filling: Add the butter and pumpkin pie spice to a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat. Once the mixture has melted, add the marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until the marshmallows are melted. Stir in the orange food coloring then stir in the crispy rice cereal until the cereal is well coated.
• Press the mixture firmly inside the crust border, pushing it down to compact it, and allow it to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, place a serving plate on top of the pan and invert the pan. Slice the pie into wedges. Pipe whipped cream with a star-shaped tip on top if desired.
