White Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispies

Friday, December 7, 2018
Here is a favorite Holiday candy-cookie, we make every year.

White chocolate with peanut butter, marshmallows, and Rice Krispies. Creamy, smooth decadent and a divine confection. Plus the bonus making this, they're a no-bake treat.

Back in the 1970s, we loved a candy called boyer smoothie cups, maybe some of my readers remember them. I was a huge fan of those.

Well, these reminded me of those little candy cups ( just minus the marshmallows) when I first made them back in 2009 they brought me back to that taste of my childhood favorite candy bar.

This year, I decided these clusters needed to be dressed up for the Christmas holiday. These are the perfect addition to our candy or cookie trays.

Peanut Butter Cups

If you’re looking for a quick, melt-in-your-mouth treat that tastes even better than the store-bought version, homemade peanut butter cups are the perfect sweet project.

With just two simple ingredients—good-quality melting chocolate and creamy peanut butter—you can create rich, smooth, perfectly layered cups right from your own kitchen.

There’s no baking, no complicated steps, and no fancy equipment needed.

Whether you’re whipping up a batch for the holidays, filling a dessert tray, or simply satisfying a craving, these homemade peanut butter cups deliver classic candy-shop flavor with very little effort.

Peanut butter cups are a favorite here; however, this easy recipe is versatile, and there are several kinds of candy cups you can transform with a basic recipe guide.

We have filled them, left them solid, topped with nuts, coconut, or dried fruits, and we have also placed the melted chocolate into fancy molds for special events.

These are not only great for parties, fundraisers, weddings, and showers, but mainly they're fantastic to eat, and the sky's the limit of possibilities.

We love experimenting with using these mini muffin tins and liners, which makes the whole candy-making process a breeze.

If you have a peanut butter cup lover, this is the easiest way to make them, not to mention economical.

Scroll through all our tips, substitutions, and filling ideas. These are fun to make, and everyone will rave about them!
