Patriotic Rice Krispie Treats: *recipe from Food Network

-line dish with aluminum foil & spray with cooking spray

-Divide butter & marshmallows among 3 bowls (1 tablespoon of butter and about 2 cups of marshmallows per bowl)

-Microwave 1 bowl until butter has melted & the marshmallows have puffed, about 60 seconds. Stir in blue gel food coloring until mixture is smooth

-Working quickly, add 1 3/4 cups of the Rice Krispies to the bowl and stir with a spatula. Move to baking dish and press into a later. Set aside.

-Microwave another bowl of butter & marshmallows. Stir together until smooth (this will be the “white” layer). Stir in another 1 3/4 cups of rice cereal until evenly coated. Place on top of the blue cereal layer, pressing until compact.

-Repeat with the remaining bowl of butter & marshmallows, microwaving until melted and smooth. Stir in red gel food coloring until the mixture is smooth. Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups rice cereal to the bowl and stir until coated. Place on top of the white cereal treat layer, pressing into a compact layer. While still warm, top with sprinkles, pressing gently.

-Let sit at room temperature about 30 minutes. Cut into squares
