Ingredients

• 3 cups Rice cereal
• 10 oz Marshmallows
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 cup White chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup Holiday sprinkles
• 20 pieces Mini pretzel sticks
• 20 pieces Red candy-coated chocolates
• 5 drops Green food coloring
• 1 bottle Non-stick spray

Directions

Step 1

Lightly spray a large mixing bowl and a spatula with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Add the marshmallows and microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the marshmallows are fully melted and smooth.

Step 3

Add green food coloring to the melted marshmallow mixture and stir until evenly colored.

Step 4

Pour the rice cereal into the large mixing bowl and carefully fold the melted marshmallow mixture into the cereal using the greased spatula until well combined.

Step 5

Spray your hands lightly with non-stick spray, then scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the cereal mixture and shape it into a ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 6

Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth.

Step 7

Dip the top of each cereal ball into the melted white chocolate, then immediately sprinkle with holiday sprinkles to decorate.

Step 8

Add a mini pretzel stick into the top of each ball to create a 'trunk' if desired.

Step 9

Attach a red candy-coated chocolate to the center side of each treat with a small dab of the melted chocolate to create a decorative 'nose'.

Step 10

Let the treats set on the baking sheet at room temperature for about 15 minutes or until the chocolate hardens.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy these festive, no-bake Christmas delights!
