Ingredients
  

  • 2 TBS Butter
  • 1 bag 10.5oz Mini Marshmallows
  • 1 TBS Peanut Butter creamy or crunchy
  • 6 cups Banana Cheerios
  • 1 cup Butterscotch Chips

Method
 

  1. Spray a 9×13 inch pan with cooking spray.
  2. Melt butter in a microwave safe bowl. Mix in peanut butter and marshmallows and microwave for 1 and a half minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until creamy and smooth.
  3. Add cheerios to the bowl and coat. Add the butterscotch chips and mix in. Press into a 9×13 inch pan and cool one hour until set. (I recommend spraying the back of a spatula with cooking spray and pressing down the treats, they are a bit sticky if you do it by hand!) Store loosely covered.

Notes

These are delicious! Instead of a rice crispies treat how about a cheerio treat? The banana flavor from the cereal stays strong, even after being coated in creamy marshmallows and peanut butter. The cheerios are crispy while the butterscotch is creamy and mingles well with the peanut butter.
