CEREAL TREATS I



Cereal Treats I image

This version has no chocolate topping, but it would be easy to melt chocolate chips and spread them over the top. We have a nut allergy in our family and I omit the peanut butter and substitute 1/2 cup of butterscotch chips melted with the margarine instead.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Using fresh ingredients, especially butter and marshmallows, will give your candy corn cereal treats the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the marshmallows: Overcooked marshmallows will make your candy corn cereal treats tough and chewy. Cook them just until they are melted and smooth.
  • Add the cereal quickly: Once the marshmallows are melted, add the cereal quickly and stir until it is evenly coated. If you wait too long, the marshmallows will start to set and the cereal will be difficult to mix in.
  • Use a large bowl: You will need a large bowl to mix the ingredients together. A large bowl will also make it easier to stir the cereal into the marshmallows.
  • Line the pan with parchment paper: Lining the pan with parchment paper will make it easy to remove the candy corn cereal treats from the pan once they are set.
  • Chill the candy corn cereal treats before cutting: Chilling the candy corn cereal treats before cutting will make them easier to cut and will help them hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Candy corn cereal treats are a fun and easy treat to make for any occasion. They are perfect for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or Christmas, or just for a sweet snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these delicious treats in no time. So next time you are looking for a sweet and easy treat to make, give candy corn cereal treats a try.
