Here is a recipe to use up all that Special K cereal we have been so excited about here lately. Actually this is a really good recipe that I got from my SIL several years ago. It is fairly quick to put together. It just has to be done a little ahead of time so it will get a good chill in the refrigerator. Cook time is estimated and does not include chill time.
