Scale
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz white chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 cups rice krispies
- 2 cups marshmallows
Instructions
- Melt White Chocolate: In a double boiler, gently melt the white chocolate chips over simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove the bowl from heat carefully.
- Add Peanut Butter: Stir the peanut butter into the melted white chocolate until fully combined and smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rice krispies and marshmallows gently until the mixture is evenly combined.
- Form Cookies: Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto waxed paper, spacing them out to prevent sticking.
- Chill: Place the cookies in the refrigerator and chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Store: Keep the cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
Notes
- If you don't have a double boiler, create one by simmering water in a saucepan and placing a heat-proof metal or glass bowl on top, ensuring it fits securely without touching the water.
- Be cautious of steam and the hot bowl when removing from heat to avoid burns.
- Use waxed paper to prevent sticking while the cookies set.
- Store in the fridge to keep the texture firm and fresh.
- Peanut butter can be substituted with almond or sunflower seed butter for allergies.
