Cereal Treat Sunday-Chocolate Chex Caramel Corn Bars

By 1 Comment

So, this week’s recipe is straight from the source. I found it on the Chex website a few months back when I was looking for something to do with the new Chocolate Chex. It totally rocks! I love the mix of sweet and salty and well we are big fans of popcorn at my house so that’s just an added bonus.

Chocolate Chex Caramel Corn Bars

Ingredients

4 cups popped light butter-flavor microwave popcorn
4 cups Chocolate Chex® cereal
1 cup pretzel sticks, coarsely broken
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1. Butter bottom and sides of 13×9-inch pan. Remove unpopped kernels from popped popcorn. In large bowl, mix popcorn, cereal and pretzels; set aside.
2. Microwave brown sugar, corn syrup and butter uncovered on High 1 to 2 minutes or until boiling, stirring after 1 minute. Microwave 30 seconds longer; stir. Pour over cereal mixture in bowl, stirring until evenly coated. Press firmly in pan.
3. In small bowl, microwave chocolate chips uncovered on High 30 seconds to 1 minute or until chips can be stirred smooth. Drizzle over bars. Cool.

September Visiting Teaching Handout

By 8 Comments

The September Visiting teaching handout is on “Our Responsibility to Nurture the Rising Generation.” This seems to be a common theme lately. This rising generation must be something special huh? 😉 I used the quote from Julie B. Beck. She is amazing!

Feel free to print out the Visiting teaching handout and use it as you like.

I am loving this argyle/bird combo!
