Cheerios Cereal Bars
Description
Butter and marshmallows are melted together to form a sticky binder for the Cheerios cereal. Once thoroughly combined, the sticky mixture is poured into a 9x13 pan and pressed down firmly to unify the bars. After cooling completely, the mixture solidifies to a chewy bar with a soft bite.
The end result is a sweet snack bar that carries the familiar toasted oat flavor of Cheerios, complemented by the sweetness and chewiness of melted marshmallows. The butter adds a slight richness that helps meld the ingredients into a cohesive texture.
These bars serve well as a quick snack or a treat for kids. They can be cut into squares and stored at room temperature for easy access.

Instructions
- In a dutch oven melt the butter on medium heat then add in the marshmallows and mix until completely melted.

- Press the mixture into a 9x13 inch pan and let cool completely before serving.
