Until recently, I had never before heard of Avalanche Bars. Ever. I asked my family at dinner one night if they had ever heard of them. My oldest Hungry Puppy was pretty sure that Avalanche Bars keep the snow from falling in.
Avalanche Bars (if you are unaware) are these super easy, no bake, fabulously delicious little bars made with rice krispies, white chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallows and mini chocolate chips. Whoa. They are a little bit like rice krispies treats, but with white chocolate as the binder instead of marshmallows. I would take them over a rice krispies treat any day.
Avalanche Bars
1 bag (12 ounces) white chocolate chips
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3 cups rice krispies
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips + extra for sprinkling on top
Spray a 9x9 inch square pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a microwaveable bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and peanut butter. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Heat for an additional 15 to 30 seconds, then stir again until white chocolate is melted and smooth. Add the rice krispies and stir to coat evenly with the white chocolate mixture. Add the marshmallows and mini chocolate chips and stir until evenly distributed.
Transfer the rice krispies mixture to the prepared pan and sprinkle the extra mini chocolate chips on top. With greased fingers, or the back of a greased spoon, press down lightly into the pan (you don't want it to be too compacted, just enough to keep it together). Refrigerate until completely cool. Makes 16 servings.
Enjoy! -Cardamommy
