Instructions

  1. Heat the Ingredients: Heat butter, caramel bits, chocolate chips, and milk on the stovetop in a large saucepan or stock pan on LOW heat.
  2. Melt Caramel: Mash caramel bits as they heat with the back of the wooden spoon to speed up the melting process. Continually stir until smooth and creamy, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add Marshmallows: Add marshmallows to the chocolate mixture and stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
  4. Mix in Cereal: Stir in Krispy cereal until evenly coated.
  5. Shape the Cookies: Cover a cookie sheet or work surface with parchment paper. Add 1/4 cup scoops of cookie mixture onto parchment paper. Press down with a plastic measuring cup to flatten cookies. Let cool for 5 minutes, then shape the edges smooth and round with your hands.
