snack bars with an autumn flavor


having recently over- estimated someone's love of cereal, and wanting to take a snack to a friend's art opening, i put this together last night. gooey!
i was starting out with a big bag of honey nut whole grain cereal called scooters. the other ingredients followed that flavor lead. both the chips and the marshmallows were on sale at hy-vee.

first, melted a half a stick of butter over low heat. when liquid, added a bag of marshmallows, a cup of butterscotch chips, and a teaspoon of cinnamon. stirred constantly till all that melted, then immediately added six cups of cereal and stirred it to coat. then transferred the sticky mess as fast as i could into a pan, and spread it out as well as i could before it got solid. they disappeared quickly.
