Generously grease an 8 inch round cake pan with butter; set aside.
In a large pot, over medium heat, melt 4 T. butter. Add marshmallows; stir to coat with the butter; allow to completely melt, stirring frequently. Remove pot from heat; gently mix in cereal until fully combined.
Transfer mixture to the prepared cake pan; press into an even layer; allow to cool completely.
Run a thin knife around the edge of the pan; lay a platter, large plate or cutting board on top; invert, turning it upside down. Carefully lift up the pan. Cut treats into 8 triangles.
Melt half of the white chocolate, according to package directions. Spread a small amount of melted white chocolate on the back of the candy eyes; stick eyes to the large end of one of the triangular Rice Krispie Treats. Place on the M & M nose, making sure that 1 nose is red; place on the pretzel antlers. Repeat for remaining reindeer.
Melt the remaining white chocolate. Finish each reindeer by spreading some melted white chocolate between the antlers, covering with sprinkles, gently pressing them to adhere.
Allow the white chocolate to harden before serving or storing them in an airtight container.
8 servings.
