I've been bugging my mom to come up with recipes for this blog and these delightful treats are her latest invention. We had them for "bezzert" at our regular Monday dinner get together. "Bezzert" is the linguistic invention of my great nephew Sam--an ardent dessert aficionado--who began inquiring about the after dinner sweet options when he was but a wee lad. He's big enough now to pronounce "dessert," but "bezzert" remains the preferred word in our family. It makes us smile every time we say it. Mom's Peanut Butter Honey Oat Treats are both chewy and crunchy--and couldn't be simpler! They're a regular feature of Wood Family bezzerts! Thanks, Momma!
Mom's Peanut Butter Honey Oat Treats
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
3 cups oat cereal (e.g. Cheerios)
Line an 8x8 pan with wax or parchment paper. Place peanut butter and honey in a large mixing bowl and melt in the microwave--about 30 seconds Stir in the oat cereal, completely coating the cereal with the peanut butter/honey mixture. Press into the pan and place in refrigerator until hardened. Cut into squares. An easy and good-for-you snack (or bezzert!). Makes about 16.
