Peanut Butter Cereal Treats Recipes

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with a piece of parchment paper, leaving 1 inch of paper hanging over each side of the dish. This will help with removing the treats later. Spray the parchment paper with nonstick spray.
• In a 6-quart Dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring continuously, until the marshmallows are melted and the butter is incorporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and quickly add the cereal and peanuts; stir to combine. Transfer the cereal mixture to the prepared baking dish. Lightly coat a spatula with cooking spray, then use it to spread out the cereal mixture evenly.
• Put the melted chocolate in a plastic sandwich bag (or pastry bag), cut off one corner and drizzle over the top of the cereal treats. Refrigerate, uncovered, until set, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the cereal treats using the parchment paper and cut into 24 bars.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the marshmallows, butter and peanut butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Remove from the heat. Stir in the cereal and M&M's., Pat into a 13x9-in. pan coated with cooking spray. Cool. Cut into bars.

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with enough foil so that there's a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Grease the foil with butter.
• Melt the butter in a large pot set over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until the marshmallows melt completely, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter, vanilla and a pinch of salt. Add the cereal, pretzels and coconut. Stir with a rubber spatula, making sure to scrape up the bottom, until the cereal is completely coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and pat down into an even layer (use the bottom of a measuring cup to help). Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a small microwave safe bowl for 30-second increments in the microwave, until smooth. Drizzle over the bars, cover and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes.
• Cut into 24 bars. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Spray a 13 x 9 inch pan on bottom and sides with non-stick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl in microwave, melt margarine. Add marshmallows, stir to coat. Microwave on high 1 1/2 minutes or until smooth when stirred for 45 seconds. Stir in peanut butter.
• Add cereal all at once and stir quickly to coat. With buttered spatula, press into prepared pan. Cool and cut into squares.

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter and peanut butter.
• Coat a 9-inch x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Add marshmallows and stir constantly until mixture is melted and smooth. Then add cocoa powder and vanilla and stir until fully incorporated. Remove from heat.
• A little at a time, stir in cereal until marshmallow mixture is fully incorporated. Pour into prepared baking pan. Using your hands, lightly-sprayed with cooking spray, press cereal mixture into baking pan.
• Allow to cool. With a sharp knife, slice into desired-sized pieces and enjoy!

Steps:

• Measure cereal into large bowl. Set aside.
• Boil corn syrup in microwave. Add white sugar and stir well. Return to microwave and reheat until boiling.
• Add peanut butter to sugar/syrup mixture and stir well.
• Quickly pour peanut butter/syrup/sugar mixture into mixing bowl with cereal. Stir well (but fast!) and then transfer to a pan or baking sheet. *NOTE: This step, and the one following, must be done as quickly as possible because as the corn syrup cools the cereal mixture becomes harder to spread.*.
• Form mixture into one big rectangle about 3/4 inch thick. Cool in fridge for 1 hour.
• After its cooled the cereal rectangle may be cut into bars or squares. An alternative is to break the rectangle up by hand into pieces.
• Please note that cheerios should not make up more than 1/3rd of the mix as they absorb the corn syrup. If you need to use more cheerios (or other absorbent cereal) then add a bit more corn syrup.
