INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, combine cereal, apricots, raisins and
peanuts. In a microwave safe 13x9", melt butter and
marshmallows on high for 2 minutes. Stir; add peanut
butter cook on high 2 minutes longer. Stir until well
blended, add cereal mixture to dish and toss until
well coated. Working quickly with greased hand, form
into balls, using about 1/2 C mixture, per ball. If
mixture begins to harden, cook on high for 30 seconds,
or until softened. If desired , mixture may be spread
in unbuttered 13x9" dish and cooled and cut into bars.
Makes 1 dozen balls or 2 dozen bars, This is very
similar to the Rice Krispie treats, but with the
apricaots and raisins it definitely gives it a fall
look. I saw another idea of putting the mixture into
cookie cutters, and letting it cool there so the
shapes could be pumpkins, witches, etc. With a little
gel piping they would be great.
