Ingredients
- GRANOLA BAR:
- 3 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup corn syrup
- 1 to 2 tablespoons peanut butter, optional
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- FOR ASSEMBLY:
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup M&Ms
- 1 cup milk or semi-sweet chocolate, melted
Method
- Put the brown sugar, corn syrup, peanut butter, butter, salt and vanilla in a pot over medium heat, bring it to a boil and whisk it together.
- Lower the heat and simmer the syrup 4 to 5 minutes until it looks like a thick sauce.
- Combine the cereal and oats in a large bowl, pour the hot syrup over and fold it through with a spatula.
- Press the mixture flat into a parchment-lined 9x9 pan and chill for about an hour until cool and set.
- Lift the slab out, cut it in half, then cut each half into individual bars.
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second bursts, stirring each time. Dip the bottom of each bar in the chocolate and set the bars on a parchment-lined tray.
- Drizzle more chocolate over the tops, sprinkle the M&Ms on and chill 10 to 20 minutes until the chocolate is hard.
