ARE CHEERIOS PEANUT FREE RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200°F. Butter 2 cookie sheets, 15 1/2x12 inches, and keep warm in oven. Mix baking soda, 1 teaspoon water and the vanilla; reserve.
• Mix sugar, 1 cup water and the corn syrup in 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, to 240°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of syrup dropped into very cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water.
• Stir in butter and peanuts. Cook, stirring constantly, to 300°F or until small amount of mixture dropped into very cold water separates into hard, brittle threads. (Watch carefully so mixture does not burn.) Immediately remove from heat. Quickly stir in baking soda mixture until light and foamy.
• Pour half the candy mixture onto each cookie sheet; quickly spread about 1/4 inch thick. Cool completely, at least 1 hour. Break into pieces. Store in covered container.

Steps:

• Combine powdered sugar, peanut butter and milk in a medium mixing bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer on low-to-medium speed until all ingredients are combined. Add a generous pinch of salt, if desired, to really play up the peanut butter flavor.
• Continue mixing at medium speed 1-2 minutes more, until mixture is smooth and desired texture is achieved.
