Tasty way to satisfy those sweet and salty cravings. :) I found this recipe online while searching for a way to use up the rest of the Crispix cereal I had purchased for another recipe. Ingredients:
4 cups crispix cereal |
2 cups cheerios toasted oat cereal |
1 1/2 cups lightly salted peanuts |
1 1/2 cups broken pretzels |
1 1/2 cups m&m's plain chocolate candy |
1 cup light corn syrup |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Combine cereals, peanuts, and pretzels in a large bowl. 2. Combine corn syrup, brown sugar, and butter in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat; boil 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in vanilla. 3. Immediately pour sugar mixture over cereal mixture, and stir well to coat; stir in M&Ms. 4. Using a greased spatula, press mixture tightly into a greased jellyroll pan (approximately 15X10 inches) and cool at room temperature. (I spread it as evenly as I could, then covered with a sheet of non-stick aluminum foil and pressed it out firmly and evenly.). 5. Cut into bars when completely cooled. |
