Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by spraying it lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to avoid browning.
Once the butter is fully melted, add the mini marshmallows to the pot. Stir continuously until the marshmallows are fully melted and form a smooth mixture.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract for a touch of flavor.
Add the crispy rice cereal to the pot, stirring until all the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Carefully fold in half of the rainbow sprinkles, ensuring theyβre evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Use a greased spatula or wax paper to press the mixture evenly into the dish. Be gentle to avoid compacting the treats too much, which could make them dense.
Scatter the remaining rainbow sprinkles over the top of the mixture, pressing them in lightly so they stick.
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until set.
Once cool, cut into 12 equal squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
