These Crispy Peanut Butter Squares are perfect for bake sales and school lunches and are sure to become favorites in your home. Kid and Family Approved, not to mention coworkers and neighbors.  There is never a time our tray of these crunchy squares doesn’t disappear immediately.  One of our staff’s teenage daughters said “I’m all for testing the spa recipes, but it’s nice when you make a regular treat like these!”   We waited until after she’d enjoyed them before telling her she was eating a Biggest Loser endorsed treat.

Ingredients

  • Butter-flavored cooking spray
  • 3 cups 100% whole grain crispy brown rice cereal
  • ¼ cup rapadura (unrefined cane) sugar
  • ¼ cup Agave Nectar (or honey)

Instructions

  • Lightly coat an 8" x 8" baking dish with cooking spray. Place the cereal in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Place a medium nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and agave and slowly bring the mixture to a boil. Boil for 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low and add the peanut butter. Stir until the peanut butter is melted and the mixture is well combined.
  • Pour the peanut butter mixture into the bowl with the cereal. Using a rubber spatula, mix until the cereal is well incorporated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and, using a piece of parchment or waxed paper, firmly press the cereal into the pan. Allow to cool completely. Cut into 16 squares.

    Used CHUNKY peanut butter for more texture, and, raisins. Good.

  2. Feed Me Seymour says:

    Daughter eats these like crazy, usually after crying about whatever went wrong with her day. Last time it was a slow-loading app. So I make these often. Quickly.

  3. Fairly Fair says:

    One of my favorites. I keep printing it for people at work who enjoy my samples.

  4. Kevin says:

    Not complicated, not amazing, but nice enough to not taste like a diet cookie. Good with chips added.

  5. Pedrick says:

    This is a great recipe for anyone with teenagers.
