If not serving right away, store in an airtight container at room temperature. (You can also just use a fork to smear the chocolate all over the top.) Wait for the chocolate to cool, and then cut it into 12 equal squares using a sharp knife. Fill a sealable plastic bag with the melted chocolate and pipe it over the candies. Chocolate chips should be melted in the microwave or a double boiler once the treats have cooled completely.Immediately stir in cereal until evenly coated. The treats should be brought to room temperature. In large bowl, microwave butter and marshmallows uncovered until smooth (about 2 minutes). Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan to form an even layer. Take it off the heat and stir in the peanut butter, then add the Cheerios and toss to coat.Cream in the vanilla extract and mix well. Add the marshmallows to the melted butter and stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted. To do this, put the butter in a large stockpot and heat it on low.

#CHEERIO DESSERT TV#
Some golf, some exercise, some watch TV to relax them. I was pacing back and forth in the kitchen. Imagine all our outside furniture, our kid’s outdoor playhouse, and our boat in our dark house with one small light coming from the back door where we were waiting to put on the last shutter right before we left. In a dark house with the hurricane shutters on. Hours before our flight took off there was nothing to do but wait. I had my kids and my husband with me ( along with original copies of birth certificates, etc.). If you could only bring your most valuable possessions and had to fit them in a carry-on, what would you bring? Since this was a real life situation for us, I can answer that. Not to mention hurricanes come with tornadoes and that is one of my worst nightmares. We had no idea what the destruction would be or what we would be coming back to. The airport closed on Friday night and we were one of the last flights out. All the anxious energy we had was put to good use. Being prepped so early allowed us to help our neighbors and friends put up shutters and get ready. We did all that we could do and then hoped for the best. Truth is we were prepped for Hurricane Irma days before she landed. We are still praying for those affected by Hurricane Harvey and for those who lost a lot from Irma. Hurricane Irma was headed directly for our house and ended up taking a westward turn at the last second.Īlthough a lot of my friends are still without power, our neighborhood had minimal damage and were very fortunate. We evacuated for Hurricane Irma and have been in California waiting it out.

Where do I start? It’s been a crazy two weeks. These Cheerio Treats are an easy no-bake recipe with cheerios, marshmallows, peanut butter, and M&Ms.
