NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER CEREAL BARS
Homemade no-bake peanut butter cereal bars are a perfect quick breakfast or easy snack. Protein-packed and drizzled with chocolate for a sweet & salty treat.
yield: 9 CEREAL BARS
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tbsp butter
- 22 large marshmallows
- ¼ cup smooth peanut butter
- 3 cups Cheerios
- 1 cup of chocolate chips
- 1 cup pretzels
INSTRUCTIONS
- Line a 9×9 pan with parchment paper and set aside. In a medium-sized pot, melt butter/margarine over medium heat. Add marshmallows and peanut butter and mix until completely melted. Remove from heat.
- Fold cheerios into the marshmallow mixture. Once all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined, pour into the lined pan and press down with wax paper so that the surface is even. Allow to set for about an hour.
- Once set, place the treats on a larger baking sheet (it’ll be easier to work with) and cut into rectangles.
- Melt chocolate chips and drizzle onto each Cheerio treat with a piping bag. Use the remainder of your chocolate to “glue on” your pretzel so that it sticks right on top of your Cheerio treat. Allow the chocolate to set and enjoy.
