How to Make Peanut Butter Caramel Bites Gluten Free Vegan Snickers

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush 6 cups of corn flakes (Rice Chex and/or Corn Chex) into crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed cereal with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and ½ cup of unsweetened shredded coconut.
  2. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of light corn syrup, and ½ cup of creamy peanut butter. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Remove the caramel from the heat and carefully pour it over the cereal mixture. Stir until thoroughly combined.
  4. Grease a mini muffin tin or an 8x8 inch baking pan. Press the caramel-cereal mixture firmly into the prepared pan.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until completely set. Optional: Melt some vegan chocolate chips and drizzle over the set bites before serving.
