Make these irresistible No-Bake Avalanche Cookies for a quick, crowd-pleasing treat perfect for gifting or sharing. This simple recipe combines peanut butter, white chocolate, and crispy cereal for a delicious, fast sweet treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces white chocolate almond bark, broken into pieces
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal (like Rice Krispies)
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup semi-sweet 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 almond bark pieces and the 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. Stir in the crispy rice cereal, mini marshmallows, and optional chocolate chips until all dry ingredients are evenly coated with the melted mixture. Work quickly before the chocolate sets.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming cookie shapes. You can use a small cookie scoop for uniform size.
  6. Let the cookies set completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed up the process.
  7. Store your finished No Bake Cookies in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a variation, substitute the crispy rice cereal with Honey Nut Cheerios or a mix of both for added flavor.
  • If you prefer a cleaner look, you can use white chocolate chips instead of almond bark, but you may need to add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to help the chips melt smoothly.
  • These are excellent for holiday cookie trays and make great neighbor gifts.
