Yield 16 bars, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups Cheerios toasted oat cereal
1 1/2 cups granola cereal
3/4 cup dried cranberries or 3/4 cup raisins
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

Steps:

In a medium bowl, combine cereals and dried fruit; set aside.
Spray an 8-x-8-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside. (Optional -- I recently forgot to do this, and everything came up fine. Use your best judgment.).
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Microwave at high 45 seconds or until peanut butter is melted. Pour peanut butter mixture over cereal mixture and toss to coat.
Firmly press cereal mixture into prepared pan.
Let cool completely. Cut into 16 squares.
