No-Bake Cap’n Crunch Avalanche Cookies
We went absolutely nuts over this recipe and I know you will too. Everyone loves our No-Bake Avalanches Cookies and you know me. I have to tinker with our favorites and create new versions. So of course, I took our original recipe and amped it up and created our Rocky Road Avalanche Bars which are in our new cookbook: The Simple Kitchen. Available for pre-order now!
They are truly so amazing that I knew I needed to create another avalanche cookie recipe and when I saw that Cap’n Crunch cereal is apart of the #FuelURAdventure campaign at Safeway, I knew I found the perfect ingredient.

No-Bake Cap’n Crunch Avalanche Cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 16 ounces white chocolate chips, about 2-1/2 cups
- 16 ounces honey roasted chunky peanut butter, about 1-3/4 cups
- 3 cups Cap’n Crunch cereal
- 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare 2 baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Set aside.
- Place mini chocolate chips in the freezer, until ready to use.
- Melt white chocolate chips in a large heat safe bowl, microwave 30 seconds at a time until melted and smooth, stirring between each interval.
- Add peanut butter to the melted white chocolate chips. Stir until well mixed.
- Add cereal to peanut butter mixture and fold in. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature (or until barely warm), if necessary. Mine was room temperature and didn’t need to cool.
- Fold in marshmallows and frozen chocolate chips, the chocolate chips will melt slightly and create delicious streaks of chocolate throughout your cookies. Don’t overmix or the chocolate chips will complete dissolve.
- Use a 2 tablespoon scoop to portion treats onto the prepared cookie sheets. Lightly press down on the top of each cookie with the back of the scoop to spread the cookie out.
- Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. Keep refrigerated for best results.
- Serve and enjoy!

Sugar overload
Love this recipe. All our favorite things we love – sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese. Yum. For those afraid of making the bread dough or don't have the tools, use the frozen bread dough at your grocery store. I can hardly wait to try this.
These look incredible! Yum, what decadent and delicious little confections.
What a post
Would I be able to make these ahead of time and freeze until I need to bring them out?? I am thinking no because of the cereal but doesn't hurt to ask
I love no bake cookies, and they’re so fun to make with the grandkids! They love these ones specifically and always ask for them.
