IN THE MOOD FOR A SNACK?

THESE ARE TO DIE FOR!

 

CARAMEL CEREAL TREATS

2 squares butter

1 cup dark brown sugar

3 cups miniature marshmallows

4 cups Special K cereal

 

Melt butter in heavy bottom sauce pan, add brown sugar and bring to a boil.  Boil for 3 minutes.  Remove from heat and add marshmallows and stir until marshmallows are all melted.  Pour cereal into a large bowl and pour caramel mixture over the cereal and mix until cereal is completely coated.  Drop by tablespoons full onto waxed paper or parchment paper.  Let cool.  You can add candy coated chocolate pieces to it or drizzle with chocolate to make them even better. 

Makes about 2 dozen treats

*for a gluten free version use a rice cereal or toasted rice cereal instead of Special K cereal.

 

When I make these they are gone as soon as I make them!  Enjoy!
