Avalanche Bark

Avalanche Bark is a cross between a Rice Krispie treat, fudge and candy bark with a flavor combination of white chocolate and peanut butter. Pretty much a perfect combo!

Notes

You can use the microwave to melt the white chocolate and peanut butter, but do it slowly, in 30 second increments, as the white chocolate burns easily. Be sure to use a microwave-safe bowl.

Allow the white chocolate and rice kripies to come to room temperature before adding chocolate chips and marshmallows. Do not put it in the fridge because you do not want it to harden.

When stirring in marshmallows and chocolate chips, do not over mix or the chocolate chips will begin to melt. It will still taste delicious but will take away from the white avalanche appearance.

I like to line my pan with parchment paper for easy removal, but you can also grease the pan.
