Swag Bars

Got this recipe from Cooking Light. Great mag with tasty low fat recipes. Very peanut buttery and soft with a hint of dark chocolate. Oh, did I mention, no-baking required!
  • 1-3/4 c. creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 c. sugar
  • 3/4 c. light corn syrup
  • 1-1/2 c. chopped, lightly salted, dry-roasted peanuts
  • 3-1/2 c. Total cereal, finely crushed
  • cooking spray
  • 1/3 c. chopped dark chocolate
Combine first 3 ingredients in heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook 4 minutes or till mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat, stir in peanuts and cereal. Spread mixture into 13 x 9" baking pan coated in cooking spray. Melt dark chocolate in 20 second increments in microwave till smooth. Drizzle over peanut mixture. Score into 36 bars while warm. I placed the sheet in the fridge to harden the bars for ease of removal. According to the mag. there are 155 calories in one bar.
