I am sharing my recipe for Crack Cereal Snack with you. To be honest, I don’t make much candy in summer months. It is often too warm to stand over the stove long. And the weather is often very humid. Which can wreck many candy making attempts.
This recipe can be made in a short amount of time, especially using the microwave. And even on stove top it’s the same as making rice krispie bars. So you can be assured of getting in and out of the kitchen fast when making a sweet treat.
