Avalanche Cookies

 

During the holidays one of our traditions is to have a baking day while we listen to Christmas music or watch a Christmas movie. It always helps to get us in the Christmas spirit while we make fun memories and yummy treats to share with our family & friends. One of our favorite & simple no bake holiday cookie recipes are Avalanche Cookies. These have become a quick treat we can whip up and bring to a holiday party or for a special treat while we have a Christmas movie marathon. Hope your family loves them as much as mine! :)


INGREDIENTS: 

One lb. white chocolate baking bars

1/2 cup Peanut Butter (creamy)

2 1/2- 3 cups Rice Krispies

2 cups mini marshmallows 



DIRECTIONS:

Melt chocolate baking bars over low heat on the stove, stir continuously so chocolate won't burn. When melted add in peanut butter and stir until creamy.

In a large mixing bowl mix rice Krispies and marshmallows. Pour chocolate mixture over rice Krispies and marshmallows and stir to combine. 

Drop cookies onto prepared wax papered baking sheets with a spoon. (They will not be uniform and should look a bit like a mountain shape ;)) 

Let sit up to 2 hours or until chocolate hardens. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or in freezer for 2-3 months.

*Makes 24-36 cookies


Enjoy!! :)

It is always an instant pick me up and soothes an upset tummy or an achy, tired body and satisfies my families appetites when they are getting hangry. 😋 To make this extra filling I like to add in a mix of shredded chicken and any ground elk or beef I have on hand (that has already been cooked) for a bit of extra protein.  There is just something so satisfying about a steamy cup of homemade soup on a cold winter day that soothes my soul and warms me up quickly. My family is always so happy to gobble up any homemade soup I present the...

Comprehensive Homeschool Resource List:

  Hello friends,  When I first began homeschooling I remember feeling so overwhelmed with all the choices, the stress and pressure of not knowing where to start and not wanting to make the wrong decisions or miss anything important. It was so much to try and sort through and I didn't know which direction was up. Thankfully I had several friends who had been homeschooling for several years share some of their wisdom with me, gave me tips and pointers and helped answer my questions. That was so invaluable to me as a newbie to homeschooling and I will always be so appreciative of their advice, encouragement and their time. It is my hope that this blog will be like a good friend to turn to when you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed and need somewhere to turn to find some advice and encouragement.
