Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup white candy melts
  • 3 cups rice cereal (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows (or vegan marshmallows for plant-based option)
  • Colored red and green sprinkles, for topping
  • Non-stick spray or mini cupcake liners, to prepare the muffin pan

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pan: Start by spraying your muffin pan lightly with non-stick spray or lining it with mini cupcake liners to ensure the crackles come out perfectly without sticking.
  2. Melt the Candy Melts: Gently melt your white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in short 20-second bursts and stirring in between until smooth and creamy. Be careful not to overheat!
  3. Combine Ingredients: Fold the rice cereal and mini marshmallows into the melted candy, stirring carefully so you keep that signature fluffy, crispy texture evenly coated.
  4. Fill the Muffin Pan Cups: Using a spoon, carefully spoon the mixture into each muffin cup, filling them up and pressing gently for even shape and hold.
  5. Add Sprinkles and Chill: Sprinkle your festive colored sprinkles generously on top, then pop the pan into the fridge to let the crackles set firm, usually about 30 minutes.
  6. Serve and Enjoy! Once completely set, carefully remove each Muffin Pan White Christmas Crackle from the pan and arrange on your holiday platter ready to wow guests and sweeten the party.

Notes

  • Use quality candy melts for smoother coating and a more professional finish.
  • Don’t overmix when folding ingredients to keep the rice cereal crispy and avoid crushing.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the muffin pan pockets for sturdy, neat crackles.
  • Cool completely by chilling until firm to prevent melting or sticking when serving.
  • Store airtight in containers to keep the crackles fresh longer.
