Chewy Red Velvet Patriotic Bars


Ingredients:
6 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
4 cups, plus 2 cups, mini marshmallows
4 Tbs. margarine (I used Smart Balance tub butter)
2 heaping Tbs. Red Velvet cake mix
1/2 container vanilla (red) frosting, melted
Patriotic sprinkles


Melt the butter and 4 cups of marshmallows on medium heat in a small saucepan. When most of the marshmallows are melted, add the cake mix and stir until well combined. Meanwhile, add the cereal and 2 cups of marshmallows to a large bowl. Spray a spatula with non stick cooking spray. Prepare a 13x9 pan with tinfoil, and spray with non stick cooking spray. Pour the melted liquid onto the cereal mixture and stir until everything is well coated. Spread out evenly in the pan and press down with the spatula. Drizzle with the melted frosting. Sprinkle with the patriotic sprinkles and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Cut into bars.
