No-Fail Homemade Snowflake Crisp
I always make this Snowflake Crisp when I want an easy, festive snack that never fails. There’s no baking, no complicated steps, and the result is soft, crunchy, and perfectly sweet.
Ingredients
- 40 g unsalted butter
- 200 g marshmallows
- 40 g milk powder whole milk preferred
- 150 g biscuits soda crackers or small round biscuits
- 100 g mixed nuts walnuts, almonds, cashews, toasted
- 40 g freeze-dried strawberries
- Extra milk powder for dusting the mold and surface
Instructions
Prepare the mold
- Evenly dust the inside of a mold or container with milk powder, making sure all corners are coated. This helps prevent sticking without using parchment paper.
Melt the butter
- Heat a pan over low heat and add 40g butter. Let it melt completely, stirring gently to avoid browning.
Melt the marshmallows
- Add 200g marshmallows to the pan. Keep the heat low and stir continuously until fully melted and smooth. Do not overheat, or the mixture may become tough.
Add milk powder
- Turn off the heat. Add 40g milk powder and quickly mix until fully combined and silky.
Mix in the add-ins
- Quickly add biscuits, mixed nuts, and freeze-dried strawberries. Stir fast so everything is evenly coated before the mixture starts to set.
Shape and press
- Put on disposable gloves, transfer the mixture into the prepared mold, and gently press it flat with your hands. Sprinkle a little milk powder on top for a clean finish.
Cool and cut
- Let it cool at room temperature until firm but soft. You can refrigerate for 30 minutes to speed things up. Remove from the mold and cut into bite-sized pieces.
