Well, I am sitting here on luch break at work, and the guys have devoured these. Most of the guys along with me are saying that they are FAR better than the store bought products. SO easy to prepare and bake. Many are begging for the recipe. I made recipe exactly as posted. My break is over. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

This was "great" according to my two teenagers. I used Cheerios and Rice Krispies but I can see that this could be adapted to many other types of cereals. Great since I always seem to have 1 cup of a dozen boxes of cereal leftover. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe. Will make again soon. Made for 1-2-3 Tag.

A wonderful treat! As suggested, I cut the recipe in half and made it in a 9x13 inch pan. It was a bit too sweet for me (but that didn't stop me from having more), nobody else complained so it's just me! DD measured out the cereals so it's a fun way to get kids involved too! She LOVED it! Thank you, CoffeeB, for sharing this wonderful recipe, definitely will be making it again! :)
