These Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups Have A Secret Ingredient You'd Never Expect
There's no way you could ever improve chocolate and peanut butter cups...or so I thought! These indulgent sweet bites have only five ingredients, and one of them is totally unexpected - Cheerios! The cereal gives just the right amount of crunch to make these treats even more of a pleasure to eat. We used plain Cheerios, but you can experiment with all the different flavors to see which one you like best. What recipes have you make before using cereal?
