Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 16 ounces white chocolate bark
- 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
Mix-ins
- 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1 cup miniature chocolate chips (divided)
Instructions
- Prepare the sheet: Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set it aside to keep your cookies from sticking.
- Melt white chocolate: Melt the white chocolate bark following the package directions, ensuring it is smooth and free of lumps for easy mixing.
- Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, stir melted white chocolate together with the creamy peanut butter until fully combined and smooth. Then, add Rice Krispies cereal, miniature marshmallows, and half of the miniature chocolate chips, stirring well to evenly distribute all ingredients.
- Form cookies: Using heaping tablespoons, drop the mixture onto the prepared cookie sheet in individual mounds. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips evenly over the tops of each cookie mound for added flavor and decoration.
- Chill: Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator and chill the cookies until they are fully set and firm to the touch, typically about 1 hour.
Notes
- For quicker setting, you can freeze the cookies for about 20 minutes instead of refrigerating.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresh and maintain their texture.
- You can substitute peanut butter with almond or cashew butter if desired.
- Miniature marshmallows can be replaced with regular marshmallows chopped into smaller pieces if needed.
