Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz white chocolate melting wafers or almond bark
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal (Rice Krispies)
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate or almond bark according to package directions, stirring until smooth.
- Stir the peanut butter into the melted chocolate until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal and mini marshmallows until all ingredients are evenly coated. Work quickly before the mixture sets.
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming cookie shapes.
- Allow the cookies to set completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or chill them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes for faster setting.
- Serve or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- For a variation, substitute 1 cup of the crispy rice cereal with mini peanut butter chips or chopped pretzels for a sweet and salty crunch.
- If you prefer using a slow cooker instead of a microwave, combine the chocolate and peanut butter in the slow cooker on low until melted, then stir in the dry ingredients.
- These cookies are naturally gluten free if you use certified gluten free crispy rice cereal.
