Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 3.5 ounces white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1 cup candied peanuts
  • 10 ounces marshmallows, snipped in half
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies

Equipment

  • Large saucepan
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • Parchment paper
  • Microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal later.
  2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the salted butter. Add the snipped marshmallows and stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the finely chopped white chocolate until completely melted.
  4. Gently fold in the Rice Krispies, ensuring they are evenly coated with the mixture.
  5. Fold in the candied peanuts for added crunch and flavor.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it evenly and tightly packed.
  7. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about an hour before cutting into squares or rectangles.

Notes

  • Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute with plant-based butter and dairy-free chocolate.
