Now that the kids are done with Christmas break and are back in school, why not surprise them with a yummy after school snack? These “Sunny Peanut Butter Chews” will brighten your kiddos day. I found the recipe at bettycrocker.com. So quick and easy, basically a variation on the good old rice krispie treat but made with golden graham cereal. Then you also add some peanut butter to the marshmallow mixture. Graham crackers, marshmallows, peanut butter, and butter how can you loose with that combination.
