No Bake Butterscotch Honey Cereal Bars

So, my husband went through a phase when he ate Honey Nut Cheerios everyday for breakfast for years before school. Nowadays he takes his breakfast on the go (oh, adulting and having to run out the door to work). I decided to surprise him though with an amazing and simple treat though to bring back his favorite cereal. Best of all, I didn’t even have to turn my oven on in this heat! Let me tell you, these no bake butterscotch honey cereal bars are everything he could ever want in a snack!

First, I set up an easy double boiler with almost all of my ingredients. My bowl of butterscotch, almond butter, honey and coconut oil melted over a small pot of simmering water. It became so gorgeously shiny and smooth in about 5 minutes!
Then I stirred in lots of hubby’s favorite cereal to get coated in that gorgeous melty mixture. That was all there was to putting together the mixture for these bars! I just transferred it into an 8 x 8 tray and made sure it was all evened out.
After the tray chilled and set for an hour in the refrigerator, the no bake butterscotch honey cereal bars were ready to cut and eat! I cut mine into 16 smaller squares.

Oh my goodness, these babies were the perfect simple snack! I loved that they didn’t need to bake and I could just quickly put them together. My husband went absolutely nuts for them too. The crunchy cereal with the silky butterscotch and creamy almond butter worked so well. Hope you all enjoy them, let me know what you think in the comments! xo
