Yum!!!!! They were fabulous, fast, easy and oh so good! I lined the whole pan with foil then sprayed with non stick cooking spray. Also to make it easier to pack down the cereral in the pan I covered it with plastic wrap and used a big pot to press down evenly and efficiantly. Then when they were firm I cut them into bars then took the whole foil out of the pan and the foil came right down so there was no fussing to get the bars out of the pan! Everyone in My hous loves these!

I only had honey-nut chex, and honey roasted creamy peanut butter, but it tasted SO good!! I also drizzled some melted chocolate chips on top (I'm a chocoholic, and I admit it) which also tasted wonderful!! So easy to make too!
