Holiday treats are pretty much my favorite thing to make and even more so to eat! If I could only eat fudge and truffles all through the holidays I would do just that. And some days I have, let’s be really honest! These Christmas Krispy Treats are one of my very favorites. They’re super easy and absolutely delicious. And they’re usually the first thing to go at a holiday party!
This is one of those treats that is perfect for holiday neighbor plates, parties, or while snuggling up with a good book on a snowy day.
Christmas Krispy Treats
Ingredients
- 6 c. Rice Krispys cereal
- 1 1/2 bags mini marshmallows
- 4 Tbsp butter plus extra to grease pan
- 1 bag white chocolate chips

Instructions
- Grease the bottom of a 9×13 pan with extra butter. Melt 4 Tbsp butter completely and place in a large microwave safe bowl. Pour marshmallows over the butter and stir around to coat.
- Heat marshmallows in the microwave for 30 seconds, stir, microwave for another 30 seconds, and stir again. Add the cereal to the bowl and mix well with marshmallows.

I love white chocolate. The sprinkles on top make it look very festive. Don’t feel bad about the days of eating truffles. Some days all I eat is ice cream.
