Dulce de Leche Bars
From Family Circle Magazine
Ingredients:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut up
1 bag (10 ounces) marshmallows
6 cups Dulce de Leche (or Original) Cheerios
1 cup golden raisins
1 bag (11 ounces) butterscotch morsels
Directions:
1. Coat a 15x10x1-inch or 13x9x2-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add marshmallows and cook until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
2. Remove pot from heat and stir in Cheerios and raisins. Let stand 2 minutes (mixture will stick to pot if you wait too long).
3. Fold in butterscotch morsels until well distributed. With greased hands, gently press mixture into prepared dish.
4. Let stand at room temperature until cool. Cut into 24 bars.
Makes 24 servings
Cheerios do lend themselves to being a good base for these bars. They do not have a lot of flavor by themselves so I am sure the mix of marshmallow and butterscotch flavor really stands out. These do look tasty and are a nice change from all the rice krispy treats around. Thanks for the recipe and have a great weekend!
