Instructions

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Pulse cookies in a food processor until they form a mix of crumbs and small pieces, reserving 1/2 cup for later.
In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter and marshmallows while stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth.
Remove from heat and gently fold in the cereal, cookie crumbles, and 2 tablespoons of each type of sprinkle.
Using a greased silicone spatula, press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the reserved cookie pieces on top of the mixture.
Melt the white chocolate chips in two separate bowls in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Using a sandwich bag with a cut corner, drizzle the plain melted white chocolate over the treats.
Add red food coloring to the remaining melted chocolate to make pink chocolate and drizzle it in the opposite direction.
Finish by topping with the remaining sprinkles and allow to cool completely until set.

Notes

For perfect drizzling, ensure the white chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Keep the treats stored in an airtight container at room temperature for freshness.
Feel free to customize the sprinkles for different occasions.
