Honey Breakfast Bars
This is an old recipe my mom got from Sue Bee Honey. Of course I tweaked it a bit to make it my own. This is an easy and versatile recipe. You can use any kind of cereal and dried fruit, chunky or creamy peanut butter, even flavored honey would be good. This time I used three kinds of cereal: Special K Fruit and Yogurt, Kix, and Cheerios. It's a great breakfast, snack, or dessert.
6 cups cereal tossed with 6 ounces of dried fruit. I used a trail mix with cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds, slivered almonds and peanuts. In a saucepan combine 1 cup honey, 1 1/2 cups peanut butter, a tablespoon of butter and 3/4 cup of dark brown sugar, stirring constantly til just boiling. Quickly mix with cereal mix and press firmly into buttered (not spray, good old salted butter) pan. Cut after completely cooled with a sharp knife. I pressed a few yogurt raisins into the top to dress it up.
