    These were so easy to make and delicious! Having made rice krispies the same way, the key is to not over cook your syrup and sugar! Over cooking leads to rock hard cookies!

    Very Good. I remember these from when I went to Indiana University in Bloomington and would get them at the Student Union between classes. They taste better if you add 1/2 cup more cereal. Make sure you use good quality peanut butter.

    I am a gastric bypass patient so I needed to make these sugar free. I used Splenda in place of the sugar sf syrup for the corn syrup natural peanut butter and Special K Protein Plus for the cereal. Very easy and turned out delicious.
