Ingredients

4 cups rice cereal
1 package (10 oz) pink marshmallows
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Food coloring (optional for deeper pink color)
Sprinkles for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the pink marshmallows and stir until completely melted. If you desire a deeper pink color, add a few drops of food coloring.
Add Rice Cereal: Remove the pot from heat and quickly add the rice cereal. Stir until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Shape into Hearts: Grease a heart-shaped cookie cutter or a baking dish with cooking spray. Press the mixture into the cutter or dish firmly to shape it into hearts.
Cool and Decorate: Allow the Krispies to cool for a few minutes, then remove them from the cutter. If desired, sprinkle with additional sprinkles for a festive touch.
