Make these irresistible No Bake Avalanche Cookies using just a few simple ingredients. This quick dessert combines peanut butter, white chocolate, marshmallows, and crispy rice cereal for a sweet, crunchy treat that requires no oven time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips or almond bark
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 5 cups crispy rice cereal (Rice Krispies)
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips (optional mix-in)

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.
  3. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted. This usually takes 60 to 90 seconds total.
  4. Quickly fold in the crispy rice cereal and mini marshmallows until everything is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture. If using, stir in the mini chocolate chips now.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming cookie shapes. Work quickly as the mixture sets fast.
  6. If you prefer a firmer cookie, you can gently press the tops down slightly.
  7. Let the avalanche cookies sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or chill them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes, until fully set.
  8. Store the finished cookies in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a different texture, substitute the crispy rice cereal with an equal amount of Honey Nut Cheerios or crushed pretzels.
  • If you want a richer flavor, use half white chocolate and half milk chocolate for melting.
  • This recipe is great for making ahead; the cookies stay fresh for up to one week when stored properly.
