This peanut butter Cheerios bars recipe calls for just four basic ingredients and produces fast and easy no-bake peanut butter bars that are ideal for a grab-and-go snack!
I intended to create a snack or dessert out of the box of Cheerios cereal I had on hand.
Then I thought it would be so simple to create cereal bars out of them using just a few items I already had on hand: Cheerios (duh), peanut butter, honey, and chocolate chips.
I’m kind of in love with them, and I’m very sure the convenience of creating them contributes to why they will become a go-to at home.
Even better, if you use Honey Nut Cheerios, you can reduce the quantity of honey in the recipe. Keep it in if you truly like honey! I won’t tell you how to spend your life.
