BLUEBERRY STUDDED BOO BERRY CEREAL TREATS

Steps:

• Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
• In a heavy bottomed saucepan, melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and stir with a non-stick spatula until everything is combined and melted. Remove from the heat.
• Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the cereal and dried blueberries, folding to combine.
• Pour into the prepared pan and flatten using a spatula. The mixture will be sticky - you might want to also spray your hands with a bit of the nonstick spray.
• To make the glaze:
• In a small bowl, add the powdered sugar, one tablespoon of the glaze and the vanilla extract.
• Whisk to combine. Add more water as needed to get to the perfect drizzling consistency.
• Drizzle the glaze over the bars and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
• Let set for about an hour or two.
• Cut into bars and serve.
• Enjoy!

BLUEBERRY-VANILLA MONSTER CEREAL TREATS

Steps:

• Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil or two crossed strips of parchment paper and lightly butter the foil or parchment. Grind the freeze-dried blueberries in a food processor until fine.
• Melt the butter in a large wide pot over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring, until almost completely melted. Add the ground blueberries, vanilla and salt and stir until the blueberries are dissolved and the marshmallows are purple. Remove from the heat; add the rice cereal in two batches, stirring to coat.
• Pour the cereal mixture into the pan. Lightly butter your hands and press the mixture into an even layer. Set aside to cool completely.
• Put the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave, stirring every 20 seconds, until smooth; let cool.
• Use the foil or parchment to lift the treats out of the pan and cut into 12 bars. Using a small offset spatula or spoon, spread the white chocolate on top of each bar, covering about half. Add 2 candy eyeballs to each. Grind more freeze-dried blueberries to use as hair. Let stand until set, about 30 minutes.
