Ingredients

Units Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup cookie butter or Biscoff spread

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cookie Sheet: Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to keep the cookies from sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal and mini marshmallows evenly to ensure a balanced texture.
  3. Melt Chocolate and Cookie Butter: Place white chocolate chips into a completely dry, microwave-safe medium bowl. Heat on high for 45 seconds, then add the cookie butter. Continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring vigorously between each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Stir in ground cinnamon to infuse warm spice flavor.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the melted chocolate and cookie butter mixture into the cereal and marshmallow bowl. Stir thoroughly until all the cereal is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture for consistent flavor.
  5. Form Cookies: Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the dough and drop them onto the prepared parchment-lined cookie sheet, shaping them into individual cookies.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator and allow the cookies to set completely before serving, usually about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Notes

  • Ensure the microwave-safe bowl is completely dry to prevent chocolate from seizing.
  • You can substitute cookie butter with a similar spread like Biscoff or speculoos spread.
  • Storage: Keep cookies refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • For firmer cookies, chill overnight.
  • Optional: Add a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture to balance sweetness.
