Instructions to Make Lazy Day Comfort Crunch
- Prepare Your Baking Dish: Start by lining a small square baking dish with parchment paper or greasing it lightly to prevent sticking. This will make it easier to remove the crunch once it’s set.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey. If your peanut butter is too thick, you can warm it slightly in the microwave for about 15 seconds to make it easier to mix.
- Combine with Cereal: Add the cereal to the peanut butter and honey mixture, stirring gently to coat all the cereal evenly. Be careful not to crush the cereal too much; you want to maintain some texture for that delightful crunch.
- Press into the Dish: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly using a spatula or your hands. Make sure it’s evenly packed so that it holds together when you cut it.
- Chill and Set: Place the dish in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up. This will help the crunch hold its shape when you slice it.
- Slice and Serve: Once set, remove the crunch from the dish using the parchment paper (if used), and cut it into squares or bars. Serve and enjoy your Lazy Day Comfort Crunch!
Additional Tips
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They make a great snack or dessert option for the whole family.
- Add-Ins: For added flavor and texture, consider adding chocolate chips, dried fruits, or nuts to the mixture before pressing it into the dish.
- Drizzle: For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle melted chocolate over the top before chilling.
