Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Mixture

  • 2 lbs white melting chocolate or vanilla candy coating, chopped
  • 1.5 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Dry Mix

  • 4 cups corn flake cereal
  • 4 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chocolate: Use a sharp knife to cut 2 lbs of white melting chocolate into small chunks and place them into a 6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally as the chocolate begins to soften.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: While the chocolate is melting, combine 4 cups corn flake cereal, 4 cups crispy rice cereal, and 4 cups mini marshmallows in a large bowl. Set this dry mixture aside until needed.
  3. Combine Peanut Butter and Flavoring: Once the chocolate is melted, gently stir in 1.5 cups of creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated. Immediately add 1/2 teaspoon almond extract and stir until well combined.
  4. Incorporate Dry Mixture: Gradually add the dry cereal and marshmallow mixture into the chocolate-peanut butter mixture, stirring carefully to coat everything evenly without crushing the cereals.
  5. Shape the Candy: Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the combined mixture onto wax or parchment paper, spacing them apart to prevent sticking. Allow the candy to cool and set at room temperature until firm.
  6. Storage: Store the cooled candy at room temperature in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.

Notes

  • Using a slow cooker for melting chocolate helps prevent burning and promotes an even melt.
  • Be sure to stir gently when mixing dry ingredients to keep cereals intact and crunchy.
  • The almond extract adds a subtle nutty flavor that enhances the peanut butter; it can be omitted if allergic or substituted with vanilla extract.
  • Store candies in an airtight container at room temperature; avoid refrigeration as it may affect texture.
  • For a different twist, you can substitute peanut butter with almond or cashew butter if preferred.
