Preparation

Step 1

1. In large microwavable bowl, mix cereals and peanuts.

2. In 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, microwave butter and honey uncovered on High 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until mixture comes to a full boil and butter is melted. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated. Microwave uncovered on High 2 to 4 minutes, stirring every minute, until mixture is well coated and looks glazed.

3. Spread on waxed paper or foil to cool. Place in serving bowl; stir in candies. Store in airtight container.

Method Note: Spray inside of measuring cup with cooking spray before measuring honey so the honey will slide right out after measuring.
Family/Kids: This snack is perfect for lunch boxes when packaged in small resealable food-storage plastic bags.
