- 1/2 cup honey
- Square pan
- Parchment paper
Let’s get to work!
In a small, microwave-safe bowl, mix the peanut butter and honey together. Make sure the mixture is completely smooth.
Pro-tip: to ensure peanut butter/honey mixture is completely smooth, microwave them together for 20 second increments, stirring after each session until completely smooth.
Pour the smooth mixture over 4 cups of crispy cereal and stir until cereal is well coated.
In a parchment paper lined square pan, press the coated cereal firmly into the pan until you have an even layer. Refrigerate overnight, cut into squares, and ENJOY!
