In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat your marshmallows and butter for 1-2 minutes until the marshmallows get puffy and mix in your Rice Krispies one cup at a time.
Spray your baking pan with a non-stick cooking spray and press your Rice Krispie Treats into your pan.
Use a 4″ scalloped cookie cutter to cut out your Rice Krispie Treats.
2. decorate your rice krispies:
In five small cups, scoop 1/3 cup of frosting in each cup and use the food coloring to color each cup of frosting a different color.
Scoop each color frosting into a decorating bag and cut a small tip off the end of each bag.
Start with the red, then orange, yellow, blue and pink frosting and draw a half circle rainbow shape on each Rice Krispie right under the last color.
Dab some blue or white frosting onto the rainbow on each side and stick some miniature marshmallows on each side.
