Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispy Bites

Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispy Bites

            Isn’t it fun to think you get three (count ‘em , three ) of these marvelous mouthfuls ? clever cooks have mixed up  cereal sweets for years, but I thing this combo is one of my favorites.

Serves 8 (3 each)

½ cup reduced- fat peanut butter

½ cup mini chocolate chips

¼ cup SPLENDA* Granular

3 cups Rice Kris pies cereal.

Place a large piece of waxed paper on barking sheet. In an 8- cup glass microwaveable measuring cup, combine peanut butter , chocolate chips, and SPLENDA*. Microwave on HIGH (100% power ) for 40 seconds for until mixture is melted, stirring after 20 seconds. Fold in Rice Kris pies cereal. Drop mixture by teaspoonful onto prepared baking sheet to form 24 pieces. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until firm.
