Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups honey
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 cups crisp rice cereal
- 1 cup crushed pretzels
- 0.5 cups mini chocolate candies (optional for topping)
Instructions
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, melt the semisweet chocolate chips, unsalted butter, and honey together. Stir frequently until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the chocolate mixture cool slightly for about 2 minutes to prevent melting the marshmallows.
Add the mini marshmallows, crisp rice cereal, and crushed pretzels to the saucepan. Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula until everything is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to press it down gently into an even layer.
If desired, sprinkle mini chocolate candies over the top and press them lightly to adhere.
Refrigerate the dish for about 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Once set, remove the chocolate mixture from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into small squares or bite-sized pieces.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
