Peanut Butter Crispies for Christmas
The best part about making these is that you don’t need to use the oven or stovetop. Mix rice cereal with mini marshmallows in a large bow.
Use the microwave to melt a package of white chocolate candy melts. I use Ghirardelli because you can taste the difference between using them and other brands.
While the candy melts are melting, line a baking sheet with either parchment paper or a silicone liner.
Add the peanut butter to the melted candy melts and stir until it’s combined.
Stir the melted mixture into the cereal and marshmallows. You will need to work quickly because at this point it’s very sticky.
Scoop the mixture into small clusters and add to parchment paper.
Sprinkle each piece with an assortment of Christmas sprinkles. If you’re making these for other occasions, like Easter, use pastel sprinkles. Red, White, and Blue would be fun for the 4th of July.
Pop them into the refrigerator for at least 5 minutes. As they set, they won’t as sticky.
These can be stored in a airtight container for several days, so you can make them ahead for a holiday gathering.
These bite sized Peanut Butter Crispies are sure to be a hit with anyone who loves peanut butter.
