I found this yummy recipe on Taste of Home. It's super easy to make!
Double Peanut Bars Recipe
These sweet no-bake snacks are great energy bars. Any dried fruit works well, but I prefer cranberries. Grain cereals, plus honey, peanuts and peanut butter make the bars popular at my house. -Kim Rocker of LaGrange, Georgia
9 Servings Prep/Total Time: 15 min.
Ingredients
1-1/2 cups Wheaties
1 cup Multi Grain Cheerios
1/2 cup unsalted dry roasted peanuts
1/2 cup chopped dried mixed fruit
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
3 tablespoons peanut butter
Directions
In a bowl, combine the cereals, peanuts and mixed fruit. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey and peanut butter. Cook and stir until brown sugar and peanut butter are melted and mixture is smooth. Pour over cereal mixture; gently stir to coat evenly.
Transfer to an 8-in. square dish coated with cooking spray; gently press down. Cool and cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 9 servings.
Nutritional Analysis: One bar equals 201 calories, 7 g fat (1 g saturated fat), 0 cholesterol, 65 mg sodium, 34 g carbohydrate, 3 g fiber, 5 g protein. Diabetic Exchanges: 2 starch, 1 fat.
