Peppermint Bark Rice Krispie Treats
Peppermint Bark Rice Krispie Treats take classic cereal bars to a festive new level. Finished with a sweet white-chocolate drizzle and a sprinkle of crushed peppermint candies, they’re irresistibly chewy, crunchy, and holiday-ready.
Equipment
- 9x13-inch baking dish
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 10 ounce bag of marshmallows mini or large
- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
- 6 cups cocoa rice krispies
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup white chocolate melting wafers (or baking chips)
- 3-4 candy canes crushed
Instructions
- Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper, then set it aside.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium low heat.
- Stir in the large marshmallows and keep stirring until they’re fully melted and smooth.
- Add in the peppermint extract and remove from heat.
- Gently fold in the Cocoa Rice Krispies and mini marshmallows.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and gently press it down into an even layer.
- Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely smooth.
- Add the melted white chocolate to a small Ziploc bag and snip the tip. Drizzle it diagonally in both directions, or simply use a spoon to drizzle.
- Sprinkle the crushed candy canes on top and let them sit until the white chocolate has hardened.
- Once set, cut into squares. It's best to let the bars sit for at least an hour before cutting.
