Not only do they take 15 minutes to make (including cooling time), but I usually have everything I need in my pantry just waiting to be transformed. 

    Peanut Butter Cheerio Bars

    Some cheerio bar recipes use butter and marshmallows like Rice Krispie treats, and while those can be tasty I prefer this "healthier" version. 

    If you love no-bake treats, you will definitely also want to try our perfect no-bake cookies or our yummy homemade granola bars!

    Top Right - Heat over medium heat and stir until melty and well combined. 

    Bottom Left - Add in cheerios and stir to coat. 

    Bottom Right - Line a 9x9 baking pan with wax paper, and pour cheerio mixture into the pan. Press down with spatula or clean fingers to make sure bars lay evenly.

Once melted, pour chocolate into a small ziplock bag and cut off one corner to drizzle over the bars. Then place peanut butter cheerio bars back into the fridge to harden.

    Lift the wax paper out of your pan and cut your bars into squares. I like to cut mine into 18 rectangles, to use for small lunchbox treats or after school snacks. My kids love them.
