Chocolate Cashew Crunch Candy

1 Pkg. Chocolate Coating - melted over warm water (20 oz.) ***
2 Cups Mini-Marshmallows
2 Cups Rice Krispy Cereal - approx. measure
1/2 Cup Peanutbutter - optional
2 Cups Cashew Halves - quarters- whole ???

Melt chocolate coating or you can use chocolate chips . Add the peanutbutter to the chocolate as it melts and combine well.

Either pour the chocolate/peanutbutter over the marshmallows, cereal and cashews or you can pour these into the pan you used to melt the chocolate. If it looks like more cerial, marshmallows and nuts are needed, just add them a little at a time until everything is coated and there isn't dripping chocolate left in the mixture...it should be a fairly thick mixture. Pour everything on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper or foil and refrigerate until candy sets up. Can cut or break the candy in bite-sized pieces.

This candy is my SIL's favorite candy and she requests it every year for Christmas. SIL likes the chocolate bark in Chocolate flavor.

*** I have used the white bark, butterscotch bark and those work well, too.
