No Bake Peanut Butter Rice Krispy Cookies

Does anyone else agree that healthy-eating and vacations don't go together? My hands raised high. Today we're back from vacation and I have to admit I didn't eat to well. I didn't watch calories, didn't count fat grams and didn't exorcise. But it was vacation and that's all right. I told my self I deserved it.

Before we get back into the swing of things, I wanted to share a fun and easy recipe that takes only 4 steps and 4 ingredients. Plus with this hot summer weather, there's no need to use the oven. 





Here are your ingredients:
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 1/4 cup peanut butter
5 cups Rice Krispies

Yield: 2 dozen cookies

Directions:

1) Line two 9x13-inch baking pan with wax paper. Set aside. 

2) Place sugar and corn syrup into a large saucepan over medium heat. Stirring slowly, bring to a boil. Remove from heat.

3) In a separate bowl, combine peanut butter and Rise Krispies. Quickly stir in the liquid sugar mixture. 

4) Drop mounds {about 1 tablespoon size} onto wax lined baking pan. Allow to cool and enjoy.  








Viola! Easy peasy and great to do with kids!
