Say hello to Peanut Butter Berry Bunch Crunch Bark…
If peanut butter and jelly were to host a party, this candy bark would be on the top of the invite list! It screams party both to the eyes and to the mouth. Creamy peanut butter candy is swirled with your favorite berry-flavored jelly then sprinkled with salty roasted peanuts and sweet Berry Bunch Crunch cereal. Berry Bunch Crunch adds this awesome crunch with a burst of berry flavor in every bite. It compliments the creamy peanut butter base and the salty peanuts so perfectly. It’s so delicious you won’t be able to stop at just one piece.
The boys love helping me make this bark! It’s so easy that even a 3 year old could make it from start to finish with very little help. I let the boys pretty much do each step by themselves from spreading out the peanut butter candy base to sprinkling on the colorful cereal (while sneaking a few handfuls of cereal to snack on while we make it!). I love how surprised their faces look when I tell them they can break the bark up once it’s cooled. A little boy’s dream! 😉 Such a fun and obviously yummy activity!
Just 5 ingredients and about 10 minutes is all it takes to make the bark and then about an hour to let it cool completely.
So what are you waiting for?! No occasion needed to make this yummy bark. It will bring a smile to your face no matter what your age.
Enjoy!
