Kids
Chocolate-Honey Smash Snacks

Description
Kids will love making - and eating - these tasty oat-packed treats.

Ingredients

  • 2-1/2 cups thin pretzel sticks, broken into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 package (10 oz.) peanut butter-flavored chips
  • 2-1/4 cups Quaker oats (quick or old fashioned), uncooked
  • 1 package (12 oz.) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1 cup dry roasted peanuts (optional)

Preparation
1. In large bowl, combine pretzels, oats, raisins and, if desired, peanuts; mix well. In large saucepan, combine chips and honey; heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until chips are melted.

2. Immediately pour over oat mixture, stirring until all dry ingredients are evenly coated. Spread and "smash" onto foil-lined cookie sheet, working the mixture to the edges of the sheet (mixture will be 3/8- to 1/2-inch thick, depending upon size of cookie sheet). Place in refrigerator until firm. Break into pieces. Store tightly covered at room temperature.

Cook's Tip: Substitute 1 package (11 oz.) butterscotch-flavored chips for peanut butter-flavored chips.
