Double Reese’s Cereal Bars

15 Nov

Hi again!

I made cereal bars!!

Double Reese’s Cereal Bars!!!

My daughter has been asking for Reese’s Puffs Cereal, and I finally caved.  Of course, she isn’t going be breakfasting on it; because I made cereal treats with the whole box!  Yup……the WHOLE, entire 13 ounce box.  🙂

To be honest……I love love love Reese’s Puffs Cereal.  It is a super tasty snack!   So, my girl gets her craving for it honestly.  In my opinion, chocolate and peanut butter should be a major food group……just sayin!

These treats are pretty festive……yellow, orange, and white!  Totally Thanksgiving-y!!  You make them just like a traditional Rice Krispie Treat, which is super simple……SCORE!  And, then you add extra Reese’s goodness……DOUBLE SCORE!!

Double Reese’s Cereal Bars

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • (1) 10 oz. package of miniature marshmallows
  • (1) 13 oz. box of Reese’s Puffs Cereal (It’s about 7 cups)
  • 1 cup Reese’s mini Pieces

–  In a large saucepan,  melt the butter over medium heat.

–  Pour in the marshmallows, and stir constantly until they are completely melted.

–  Remove from heat and add the cereal.  Stir until it is covered in the melted marshmallows. (It is VERY sticky.)

–  Using a rubber spatula, press into the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch pan.  (I sprayed the bottom of my pan and also the back of the spatula with non-stick spray.)

–  Immediately pour the cup of mini Pieces evenly over the top and lightly press them down.

–  Cool, and cut into squares.

They are like an ocean of Yummy!  All I can say is……WILL POWER!!  I wanted to eat the entire pan!

I love to make cereal bars and treats.  These were a hit!  My kids hovered over them……another SCORE!

They are total winners!

I’m actually looking forward to making them again!

Enjoy!!

Love, Lara
