Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 bag (10 oz) mini marshmallows
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or white candy melts
- Powdered sugar
- 2 candy eyes per reindeer
- 1 red or pink candy nose (M&M / Skittle / jellybean) per reindeer
- Chocolate antlers (piped and cooled) per reindeer
- Optional: frosting or extra marshmallows for “snow”
Instructions
- Melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and mix in rice cereal until fully coated. Press mixture into a parchment-lined 9×13 pan. Flatten evenly and let cool completely.
- Once firm, slice into squares or rectangles. Melt white chocolate until smooth. Dip the tops of each treat to create a frosted layer. Let excess drip off and place on a tray to set.
- While chocolate is soft — or using melted chocolate as glue — attach 2 candy eyes, 1 red/pink nose, and 2 chocolate antlers at the top. Dust lightly with powdered sugar.
Notes
- Chill chocolate antlers before inserting so they don’t break.
- Grease hands or spatula to avoid sticking when pressing base.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or peppermint to the melted marshmallows for extra holiday flavor.
