These are my favorite! My grandma started making these every Christmas since before I was born. I'm in my 60s now. I still make them every year.

These are my favorite holiday goodies. My mom has made these for a lot of years. Probably close to 30 years. But she uses Special K, so we appropriately call them health bars.

It turned out to be awful! I followed the directions to a TEE! And they came out hard as a rock! We had to use a knife I use to a butcher knife bones in half and I still needed a literal hammer to get it out of my pan! And “ no” I only brought it to a boil as instructed and then a simmer!

Hi there, I have made these hundreds of times; no hammer required ;) Make sure you're not pressing the mixture tightly into the pan (as in compacting). That would remove any air and they would be very hard. Thanks for your comment so I could address it!

Don't boil the sugar & syrup. Heat on med and stir just until sugar is dissolved and bubbles start. Take off the heat & add peanut butter. I always add 1/3 cup more corn syrup, 1/3 cup more peanut butter and a teaspoon of vanilla. It's never failed me. I make these at least once a month. Do NOT boil the syrup.

@@lilzabug I made my mom's recipe for the first time in 15 years… She's no longer with me to ask. Her instruction said to cool in the fridge for 10 minutes before cutting. I left them in for 20 while making caramels on the stove… When I tried to cut them, the chocolate separated & broke apart from the cereal "crust." Any tips for avoiding that?

@@stephaniek2913 I put the chocolate/butterscotch mix on while the cereal is still warm. I usually just let the bars cool on the counter for a while before I put in the fridge for a very short time just to help the chocolate get solid. Before I cut them I take them out and let them come to room temp again. Maybe the chocolate is too cold? Caramels sound good. I don't think I've ever attempted to make that. I did some chocolate peanut brittle today to send to my son. Tomorrow maybe English toffee. 'Tis the season!

@@lilzabug OK. I think you're right. I don't think I let them sit on the counter, long enough for the chocolate to sort of melt into the cereal portion. I think the chocolate cooled too quickly in the refrigerator and then I tried to cut them. Even though I sprayed the glass pan with nonstick, they were difficult to get out, and just to cut in general and that also dislodged the chocolate. I will try again tomorrow! Thanks 🙏🏻
