Ingredients
- 2 bags white chocolate chips (11 ounces each)
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup mini chocolate chip morsels
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- Melt Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the white chocolate chips and creamy peanut butter together until smooth and creamy, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Combine with Cereal: Fold the melted white chocolate and peanut butter mixture into the Rice Krispies cereal until all the cereal is evenly coated.
- Cool Mixture: Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature for about 10 minutes to avoid melting the mini morsels and marshmallows when added.
- Add Mix-Ins: Stir in the mini chocolate chip morsels and mini marshmallows thoroughly to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Shape Bars: Pour the mixture into a buttered 9-inch baking dish, pressing it down lightly with a spatula or your hands to flatten and compact the bars.
- Chill: Refrigerate the baking dish for 30 minutes to allow the bars to set firmly.
- Serve: After chilling, cut the mixture into squares and serve cold. Enjoy your Avalanche Krispie Bars!
Notes
- Use creamy peanut butter for best consistency and smoothness.
- Be careful not to overheat the white chocolate to prevent it from seizing.
- If you prefer, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper for easier removal of bars.
- Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
- For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
