Ingredients
  

For the cookies
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Rich chocolate flavor; choose dark, milk, or white chocolate.
  • 2 cups crispy rice cereal Provides delightful crunch and light texture.
  • 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles Adds a festive flair and sweetness.
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter or almond butter Offers creaminess; substitute with sunflower butter for nut-free.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter.

  4. Gently fold in half of the holiday sprinkles into the mixture.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and use a spoon or small scoop to drop dollops of the mixture onto the sheet (about 1 tablespoon per cookie).
  6. Before they set, sprinkle with remaining festive sprinkles.
  7. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes, or until firm.
Serving
