Description

White Chocolate No-Bake Festive Candy is a delightful and easy-to-make treat perfect for holiday celebrations. Combining creamy melted white chocolate with crispy rice cereal, mini marshmallows, dried cranberries, crunchy pretzels, and colorful festive sprinkles, these candies are both visually appealing and delicious.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup crispy rice cereal
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup chopped pretzels
  • ¼ cup festive sprinkles
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the candies from sticking as they set.
  2. Melt White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals. Stir thoroughly between each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth without any lumps.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the crispy rice cereal, mini marshmallows, dried cranberries, chopped pretzels, and salt to create a well-distributed base mixture.
  4. Mix with Chocolate: Pour the melted white chocolate over the dry ingredients and stir quickly and thoroughly to coat all components evenly before the chocolate starts to harden.
  5. Form Candy Clusters: Using a spoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle each cluster with festive sprinkles to add color and holiday flair.
  6. Set the Candies: Allow the candies to set at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes until firm. Alternatively, place them in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes to speed up the setting process.
  7. Store Properly: Once set, transfer the candies to an airtight container to keep them fresh for several days.

Notes

  • Use holiday-themed sprinkles for seasonal flair to enhance the festive look.
  • Customize the recipe by swapping sprinkles for chopped nuts or other dried fruits according to your taste preferences.
  • These candies make excellent gifts or party snacks, adding a sweet touch to holiday celebrations.
