Special K Chewies
Recipe from: No-Bake Cookies

These classic caramel—peanut butter chews are an all-time favorite at my graduate school alma mater, Indiana University where they have been prepared and served on campus for more than a generation. The mixture hardens quickly so be sure to prep the cookie sheets before you start cooking.

Makes about 24 cookies.

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups Kellogg’s Special K cereal

Line cookie sheets with wax paper.
In a medium-size saucepan, combine the sugar and corn syrup. Bring mixture to a boil, cooking and stirring constantly, until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat.
Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until blended and smooth.
Add the cereal to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until well coated. Working quickly, drop the mixture by heaping teaspoonfuls onto the wax paper.
Let stand in cool place to harden. Store tightly covered between layers of wax paper.
