Ingredients

    2 cups Spoon Size Shredded Wheat
    1/2 cup (2.5 oz.) unsalted dry roasted peanuts
    1/3 cup (60 g. or 2 oz.) Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Bittersweet Chips

Tips

This is not a sweet treat. If you substitute sweet chips, you will cut the nutritional benefit and add calories.

If you do not want to melt the chips, you can divide the ingredients into 16 snack size Ziploc bags and enjoy it as a trail mix.


Directions

Preheat oven to 325*F. Spray baking dish. Layer 1 cup cereal, peanuts, chips and other cup of cereal evenly in baking dish. Warm in oven about 15 minutes to melt chocolate. Stir well. Spoon onto waxed paper and refrigerate till set.

If you use the microwave to melt the chips before stirring together, rather than heating in oven, follow the directions on the package of chips.

Serving Size: Makes 16 pieces, about 1/2 oz. each

Number of Servings: 16
