Peanut Butter Cereal Bars


Ok, so for those of you who don't know, Heather has an absolute obsession with Rice Krispie Treats. This is her ABSOLUTE favorite thing to munch on. Period. So, to no surprise, we recently received our latest Taste of Home issue, and I was thumbing through it, (unaware she was reading) when Heather let out a gasp behind me, and I hear a "wait! go back!" She saw these bars in the picture, and her pregnancy cravings kicked in with multiple oohs and yums. 1/2 hour later, I returned from a late night trip to the store with Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch in hand. The bars were devoured in record time by both of us, with lots of sticky fingers. Perfect late night snack (pregnancy or anytime!)

30 large Marshmallows
3 Tbsp. Butter
1 Tbsp. Peanut Butter
6 Cups Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch Cereal
1-1/2 cups Milk Chocolate Plain M&M's

In a large saucepan, combine the marshmallows, butter, and peanut butter. Cook and stir over low heat until melted. Remove from the heat. Stir in the Cereal and M&M's. Pat into a 9x13 pan coated with cooking spray. Cool. Cut into bars.
