Ingredients

  • 4 cups Special K cereal
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter and honey. Stir continuously until the mixture is melted and smooth. This should take about 3-5 minutes.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, pour the melted peanut butter and honey mixture over the Special K cereal. Mix gently but thoroughly to coat the cereal evenly.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it firmly into an even layer using the back of a spatula or your hands (lightly greased to prevent sticking).

Step 6

Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the mixture. Let them sit for about 1-2 minutes to soften, then use a spatula to gently spread the melted chocolate over the top.

Step 7

Chill the dish in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the snaps have set and the chocolate is firm.

Step 8

Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator and slice into squares or bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
