Time 15m

Yield 24-36 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (180 g) package chocolate, cooked pudding & pie filling mix
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
4 cups cereal with marshmallows (I use Count Chocola)

Steps:

Butter a 9 inch square baking pan.
In a large saucepan, combine the syrup and the dry pudding mix and heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
Remove from the heat and blend in the peanut butter (I prefer chunky) just until mixed.
Quickly stir in the cereal until evenly coated.
Spread the mixture evenly in the pan with a buttered spoon. Cool until firm, about 10 minutes.
Cut into squares. You can place them in miniature cupcakes liners for a pretty serving look.
Note: Do not use instant pudding mix.
