20 minFour ingredients. Twenty minutes. Zero oven time. These Cheerio bars are the snack every parent needs in their back pocket.
A quick boil of sugar and honey creates a sticky, golden syrup that gets swirled with peanut butter until smooth. Toss in the Cheerios, press everything into a pan, and walk away.
Once they cool, you’ve got crunchy, chewy, peanut-buttery squares that disappear faster than you can cut them.
Pro Tips
- Press the mixture firmly into the pan with a buttered spatula or waxed paper. Loose pressing means crumbly bars that fall apart.
- Toss in a handful of mini chocolate chips right after mixing for a kid-approved upgrade.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll keep for up to a week, though good luck making them last that long.
