As you all know I am a sucker for a marshmallow treat.
If it is bound together by marshmallow and butter there is a fair chance that I will eat it.
And I might possibly be addicted to Peanut Butter M&Ms.
It’s just a possibility.
But I dream about them.
I stand and stare at them when I am at the supermarket.
I know that if I buy them I will eat them all. In one night.
I lie to my children about why there are none left in their treat bags…”oh, your dad must have eaten them all..I have no idea”.
I had to attend Peanut Butter M&M rehab.
There was an intervention and everything.
So I want you to know that I am risking my sobriety with these treats.
That’s how much I love you.
With that said, I have combined 2 of my most favorite sweets into one delicious no-bake bar.
And with it being 176° outside right now I do not need a reason to turn on the oven.
You’re welcome.

I'm a PB M&M addict also! We should make a support group. And serve these chex bars at it. Though that might defeat the purpose.
Yum! I love everything about these, especially the no-baking part!
