In a large mixing bowl, add rice krispie cereal. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt white chocolate morsels and peanut butter over low heat until smooth, stirring frequently.
Pour white chocolate mixture over rice krispie cereal and gently combine until all the cereal is coated. Wait for the mixture to cool for about 15 minutes until moving on to the next step.
Fold in the mini marshmallows.
Drop the mixture by scoop or by Tablespoons onto parchment paper.
Immediately sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Let set up for about 15 minutes.
Notes
What scoop size did we use? We used a 2 1/2 Tablespoon metal cookie scoop. After we placed the cookie mounds on the parchment, we pressed them down slightly to spread them out.
Melting white chocolate: You can use the microwave to melt the white chocolate chips and peanut butter. Place them in a microwave-safe glass bowl and heat for 30 - 45 seconds at a time, stirring between rounds until everything comes together.
Marshmallows. Use fresh marshmallows. Using stale mallows will result in a stale treat!
Storage. Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
