Equipment

  • 9x13 pan

Ingredients

  • 20 ounces Ghirardelli white melting wafers (2 bags)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 4 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt white melting wafers with peanut butter for about 45 seconds. It won't look like it has melted when it comes out of the microwave, but trust me, it's hot enough.

  • Just stir together until all the white chocolate wafers are melted.

  • Add crispy rice cereal to mixture and wait about 10-15 minutes until the mix has reached room temp. (Don't put it in the fridge, you don't want it to harden quite yet).
