Instructions
For the crust:
Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray; set aside.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the marshmallows and cook over low heat until completely melted, stirring frequently. Stir in the vanilla and cereal until evenly coated. Do not over mix.
Press marshmallow mixture into the edges of the cake pan to form a 1-inch crust. (Use wax paper to help press without sticking. The more the cereal cools, the less sticky and easier to press.) Set aside and let cool while making the filling.
For the filling:
Clean out the large saucepan to use for the filling.
Melt butter in the saucepan over low heat. Stir in the pumpkin pie spice. Add the marshmallows and cook over low heat until completely melted, stirring frequently. Stir in the vanilla and cereal until evenly coated. Do not over mix.
Press the marshmallow mixture into the middle of the cake pan up to the crust to form the filling. (You might not need all of the filling.) Let cool, then invert onto serving platter or cutting board.
Slice into pie wedges and top with frosting using a star piping tip and sprinkles (optional).
Store tightly covered for up to 5 days.
