Scale
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz white chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 cups rice krispies
- 2 cups marshmallows
Instructions
- Melt the White Chocolate: Using a double boiler, gently melt the white chocolate chips over simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, then carefully remove from heat.
- Add Peanut Butter: Stir the peanut butter into the melted white chocolate until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Mix in Cereal and Marshmallows: Fold in the rice krispies and marshmallows, stirring gently until all ingredients are evenly coated and combined.
- Form Cookies: Drop the mixture by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper, forming individual cookie shapes.
- Chill to Set: Place the cookies in the refrigerator and chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Store Properly: Once firm, transfer the cookies to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
Notes
- If you don’t have a double boiler, create one by simmering a saucepan with a few inches of water and placing a metal or glass bowl snugly on top. Melt the chocolate and peanut butter carefully without letting the bowl touch the water.
- Be careful handling the hot bowl—it will be hot and steam can escape when lifting.
- Use waxed paper or parchment paper to prevent sticking when shaping cookies.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain freshness and firmness.
