Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mini marshmallows and butter.
Microwave on high for 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the marshmallows are melted and the mixture is smooth. (It should take about 1 to 1.5 minutes total.)
Stir in the vanilla extract to the melted marshmallow mixture.
Add the Froot Loops cereal to the bowl and gently fold until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the Froot Loops mixture, folding gently to combine. Be mindful not to overmix, so the white chocolate remains visible in streaks.
If using rainbow sprinkles, sprinkle them on top for a festive touch.
Transfer the candy mixture to the prepared baking dish, pressing it down gently and evenly with a spatula. Avoid packing it too tightly to maintain some airy crunch.
Let the candy set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed up the process.
Once set, lift the candy out of the baking dish using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 squares or rectangles using a sharp knife.
Store the Froot Loop Candy in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
