Freezer Meals

Butterscotch Dainties

6 C Corn Flakes

1/2 C Peanut Butter, creamy or crunchy depending on preference

1 bag Butterscotch Chips

Place corn flakes in a big bowl. Slightly crush them. Melt peanut butter and butterscotch chips together and stir until combined (microwave or stovetop is fine) Pour over corn flakes and mix until corn flakes are completely coated. Drop them onto sheets of wax paper by the teaspoon or in my family ice cream scoop! Freeze to harden and put in rigid containers or ziploc bags This is my kids favorite afternoon snack
