Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups crispy rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies)
- 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for added chocolate flavor)
Instructions
Instructions:
- Melt the White Chocolate and Peanut Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Combine with Cereal: In a large bowl, gently fold the melted white chocolate and peanut butter mixture into the crispy rice cereal until all pieces are evenly coated.
- Add Marshmallows and Chocolate Chips: Allow the mixture to cool slightly before adding the mini marshmallows and mini chocolate chips (if using) to prevent the marshmallows from melting.
- Shape the Cookies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment and shape them into cookie forms.
- Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour, or until the cookies firm up and set.
- Serve: Once set, enjoy your No-Bake Avalanche Cookies!
Notes
- These cookies are best served chilled and firm, but you can let them sit at room temperature for a softer texture.
- For added chocolate flavor, you can drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the cookies once they’ve set.
