Peanut Butter Clusters


Do you remember those gooey peanut butter clusters from school lunches? I remember always wanted an extra, even though I have never really been a huge peanut butter fan! They were delish! This week in an effort to begin some spring cleaning I have been trying to get a little creative with some ingredients that we already have in the kitchen. I wanted to make some snack items using these random things to A. make room in my cabinets B. save a little dough. Who doesn't want to save a little dough, right? Here is the recipe...

Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • Frosted flakes cereal
Melt peanut butter and white chocolate chips in medium saucepan over low heat. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Drop onto parchment paper or onto greased surface. Cool in refrigerator until set.




Doesn't get much easier than that! These measurements can all be adjusted to your preference or changed to use up whatever is taking up your cabinet space! I did not measure the frosted flakes out but just poured and mixed until I achieved the consistency that I wanted. You could easily use regular chocolate chips, add peanuts, or substitute another cereal to change things up. Enjoy!
