Reese's Sweet No-Bake Treat

Tall Cool One likes his sweet treat in the middle of the night… he is the epitome of Cookie Monster. When it is anything over 90ยบ and no air conditioning, who in their right mind wants the oven baking cookies? I made this rice crispy square kind of treat but different.

½ cup sugar
½ cup Reese’s mini pieces
½ cup light corn syrup
½ cup crunchy peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups Rice Chex cereal
½ cup cinnamon mini wheat’s, crumbled
½ cup peanuts



Combine sugar, corn syrup and peanut butter in large microwavable bowl. Cook on high one minute, remove from microwave and stir well. Cook on high one minute; add vanilla and stir well.

Fold in rice chex, mini wheat’s and peanuts until well blended. Spread mixture in 9½ x 7 pan lined with wax paper, cover with wax paper and refrigerate for one hour. Cut into 12 bars.
