The Amazing Berries and Cream Cereal Bars

If you love strawberries and cream, this one’s for you! Crispy, crunchy Very Berry Cheerios™ bars are studded with real berries and dipped in smooth white chocolate.


Ingredients:


  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 10 oz mini marshmallows
  • 1 box (11.1 oz) Cheerios™ Cereal Very Berry
  • 1 package (1.2 oz) freeze-dried strawberries
  • 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons butter or coconut oil, melted
  • Nonstick cooking spray


Instructions:


  1. Spray a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add marshmallows, stirring just until melted. Remove pan from heat and add in Cheerios and dried berries.
  3. Stir well to combine and press into the prepared pan. Allow to cool.
  4. Cut into 16 bars.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate and butter or coconut oil in 30 second bursts, stirring between, until smooth.
  6. Dip bars into the melted chocolate and set on parchment, chocolate side up. Allow to cool until chocolate sets.


NOTES:

  • To keep the bar mixture from sticking to your hands, give your palms a quick coat of cooking spray before pressing into the pan.
