Peanut Butter Caramel Bites (Gluten-Free Vegan Snickers)
"I found this recipe posted on the Vegan Fitness forums when I was searching for a recipe for homemade vegan Snickers. I adapted it to American measurements. Don't expect these to last long. Experiment with some of the add-ins (peanuts are great) and with the type of cereal (we prefer the Health Valley brand of rice chex and corn chex). They're also good with melted chocolate on the top."

These are tasty little treats! Sweet and chewy like a Snickers and a similar flavor. I made mine into walnut sized balls for a nice 2-bite treat. Next time I would add some mini chocolate chips or make them into bars and drizzle some melted chocolate on top. Thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for Spring Pick-A-Chef 2012

I am a vegan recently diagnosed with celiac disease. All recipes I post here are vegan and gluten-free. I have an 8-year-old daughter who loves to eat good food as much as I do. If you feed your kids nothing but buttered noodles, the only thing they'll ever want to eat is buttered noodles.
