Leftover Cereal Cookie Bars
Leftover Cereal Cookie Bars
When you look in your cupboards and there are several boxes of cereal with only a small portion at the bottom, not enough for a bowl full, this recipe will use them up. This is a twist on the old rice crispy treat recipe.
Ingredients
ΒΌ cup butter
1 - 10 oz package miniature marshmallows
5 cups mixed cereal
1 cup M&Ms
Directions
Grease a 9X13 inch baking pan with spray oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and marshmallows. Heat in a double boiler or in the microwave oven for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds.
Add the cereal to the marshmallow mixture and stir. Press the mixture into the greased pan. Cool for approximately 2 hours. Cut into bars or squares and serve.
Variations
Exchange the M&Ms for chocolate chips or butterscotch chips.
Exchange the M&Ms for peanut butter chips and exchange half of the butter for peanut butter.
