INGREDIENTS

4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 package (10 ounces) miniature marshmallows (about 6 cups)

1/3 cup white chocolate chips
3 candy canes, coarsely crushed, divided (about 1/4 cup)

Add marshmallows; stir constantly until marshmallows are melted. Remove from heat. Add peppermint extract; mix well. Add rice cereal, chocolate chips and 2 1/2 tablespoons of the crushed candy canes; stir until well blended.
