Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal and rolled oats. Stir to evenly distribute.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the peanut butter and honey. Heat the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).
Stir the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt into the warm peanut butter and honey mixture.
Pour the peanut butter mixture over the cereal and oats. Using a spatula, gently stir until everything is well coated.
Let the mixture cool for 2-3 minutes, then fold in the mini chocolate chips (cooling slightly prevents the chocolate chips from melting).
Scoop out heaping tablespoons of the mixture and drop them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Gently press each scoop into a mound or cluster shape.
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes or chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up.
Serve immediately, or store the Kasey Klusters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
