Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 2 cups dry roasted peanuts
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 pounds white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together 2 cups of Rice Krispies cereal, 2 cups of dry roasted peanuts, and 2 cups of miniature marshmallows until evenly distributed.
- Melt White Chocolate and Peanut Butter: Place 2 pounds of white chocolate chips and 1 cup of peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 1 minute; then continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until the mixture becomes completely melted and smooth.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the melted white chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the cereal mixture. Stir thoroughly to coat everything evenly; the mixture will be slightly runny but will firm up later.
- Shape Krispies: Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto waxed paper, spacing them to prevent sticking.
- Set and Store: Allow the krispies to set at room temperature for about 2 hours or until firm. Once set, store them in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Ensure the white chocolate and peanut butter are fully melted to achieve the best coating.
- You can lightly grease your hands or use a spatula when dropping the mixture if it’s too sticky.
- For an extra touch, you can sprinkle a few more peanuts on top before they set.
- Store in a cool, dry place to avoid melting or stickiness.
- This recipe is not suitable for those with peanut allergies.
