Easy No Bake Almond Bark Drop Cookies

2 pounds almond bark
1 cup peanut butter
2 cups dry-roasted peanuts
3 cups crisp rice cereal
2 cups miniature marshmallows

Melt the almond bark in a microwave oven or in a double boiler stirring frequently until it's smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter until it's well blended.

Fold in the dry-roasted peanuts, crisp rice cereal and the miniature marshmallows. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto waxed paper lined baking sheets.

Chill until the cookies are set and store in the refrigerator.

For a variation you can add chocolate chips or peanut butter chips. You could also use food coloring to fit an occasion. Such as red and green for Christmas cookies or orange for Halloween cookies.

You can also add some dried fruit for additional flavor and texture contrast. I like dried cranberries.

This recipe is really quick and easy and the kiddies will love helping. They'll also love eating these candy like Easy No Bake Cookies.
