Make these incredibly simple No-Bake Avalanche Cookies. They combine creamy peanut butter, melted white chocolate, crispy rice cereal, and mini marshmallows for a sweet, crunchy, and chewy treat that sets fast. This is your go-to recipe for quick desserts and last-minute gifts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces white chocolate baking chips or almond bark
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted.
  3. In a separate large bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal and miniature marshmallows.
  4. Pour the melted white chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the cereal and marshmallow mixture. Use a spatula to gently fold everything together until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated. Work quickly, as the mixture will start to set.
  5. Drop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. You can use a cookie scoop for uniform size.
  6. Allow the cookies to set completely at room temperature for about 1 hour, or place them in the refrigerator for 20 minutes for faster setting.
  7. Once firm, serve or store the cookies in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can substitute half of the white chocolate chips with milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips for a marbled look.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, use a slow cooker to melt the chocolate and peanut butter mixture instead of the microwave.
  • Store these easy candy recipe treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
