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 the Rice Krispies cereal, dry roasted peanuts, and miniature marshmallows until evenly distributed.
- Melt Chocolate and Peanut Butter: Place the white chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 1 minute, then continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
- Mix and Form Krispies: Pour the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the cereal mixture and stir thoroughly. The mixture will be slightly runny but should coat all ingredients evenly.
- Shape and Set: Using tablespoons, drop portions of the mixture onto waxed paper. Allow them to set and firm up at room temperature for about 2 hours.
- Store: Once firm, store the krispies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use dry roasted peanuts for a crunchy texture and enhanced flavor.
- Microwave heating times may vary; stir frequently to prevent burning.
- Allow the krispies to fully set before storing to avoid stickiness.
- For quicker setting, refrigerate the shaped krispies for about 30 minutes.
