My Home Group Bible Study loved them - adults and children alike Really easy to make but found the dry milk powder expensive and not available in small quantities. At least now I will have plenty on hand for the next time I make them, which is very soon!

This is excellent. I added to the recipe some butterscotch bits. One could also add shredded cocoanut, chocolate chips and even raisens. My teenager friend loved them!!

Taste was good...but they fell apart as soon as you took a bite. Did not like that at all!

I made these and they came out OK. I would suggest using creamy peanut butter instead, it would make them moister, but overall they where a great snack!

I haven't tried these yet, but in response to melsjoy, yes you can substitute creamy peanut butter for the chunky. You are not sacrificing taste. It's like eliminating nuts from a cookie recipe.

I'd use creamy peanut butter and add at least 1/2 cup spanish peanuts along with the rice cereal.Laurie

This sounds like a similar recipe I have. Can I substitute creamy peanut butter for chunky? I have crohns and can't have nuts.
