So Fun to Make and Eat!

Made with cereals, pretzels, nuts, dried fruits and chocolate candies, they’re the perfect balance of sweet, salty, chewy and crunchy. Chex cereal, Cheerios, pretzels, almonds, peanuts, dried cranberries and M&Ms make these snack bars the ultimate in texture and flavor. They’re amazing! The kids will love helping to mix together the dry ingredients while you handle the stovetop tasks. It’s a great activity to keep them busy this summer.

I created this recipe for my Summer Picnic Snack Tray. They’re such a fun snack to enjoy with the kids outside on a summer day. You can vary this recipe by making it into snack mix or even thinner snack bars. But one thing remains the same — it’s so yummy!

How to Make No-Bake Snack Mix Bars

First line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and/or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside. Then, in a large bowl, add rice square cereal, toasted oats cereal, pretzel sticks, peanuts, almonds and dried cranberries; set aside.

In small saucepan, add brown sugar, light corn syrup and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil. Remove from heat.

Pour corn syrup mixture evenly over snack mix; toss to coat. Gently stir in the 1 cup of candy-coated milk chocolate pieces. Press mixture into the prepared pan. Let set in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows to get 16 bars.

We can't get enough of this One-Ingredient Banana We can't get enough of this One-Ingredient Banana Ice Cream! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฆ It may be 100+ degrees here in Dallas, but we're staying cool and content with this naturally sweet treat. Simply slice and freeze any extra-ripe bananas you have on hand, blend in a food processor, and enjoy all summer long! ๐Ÿค— #TheBakerMama

Ingredient:
6 very ripe bananas

Instructions:
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the bananas into 1/2-inch slices and lay flat on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer for 1 and 1/2 hours.
2. Remove frozen bananas from the freezer and let set out for about 5 minutes while you set up your food processor or blender. You want the bananas to soften just a bit, but still be frozen.
3. Place the bananas in the food processor and pulse/blend until smooth and creamy. Serve and ENJOY!
ย 
Notes:
It has a soft serve consistency when you first make it which is so yummy. If you want a more scoopable consistency, freeze it in a freezer-safe container for at least 2 hours. It freezes well for up to 3 months. Just let it set out of the freezer for about 5 minutes to soften a bit before scooping.

4. Place baguette slices, peaches (cut side up) and brie wheel on a baking sheet and brush the tops of everything with olive oil.
