Description

Delightful no-bake treats featuring a perfect combination of marshmallows, caramel, and crunchy rice cereal that everyone will love.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup caramel sauce
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 4 cups rice cereal
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt the base ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine marshmallows, caramel sauce, and peanut butter. Microwave on high in 30-second bursts, stirring between each interval until fully melted and well incorporated (1-2 minutes).
  2. Incorporate the rice cereal: Once smooth, add rice cereal and mix gently until every piece is coated.
  3. Add chocolate chips: Mix in chocolate chips, letting the mixture cool slightly if needed to prevent melting.
  4. Form the balls: Scoop portions and roll them into 1-2 inch balls.
  5. Chill to set: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with sea salt, if desired. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

Store leftover balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for up to three months.
