Copycat Kudos Bars

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Grease the bottom of an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish with cooking spray and line with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang.
2. Add the cereal and oats to a large bowl and mix together. Set aside.
3. Add the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, peanut butter, and salt to a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Pour over the cereal/oat and stir to combine. Pour into the prepared baking dish and press into an even layer, all the way to the sides. Let sit on the counter for about 1 hour to firm up. Alternately, you can refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to speed up the process and harden.
5. Lift the parchment paper to remove the bars to a cutting board. Slice into 12 thin bars.
6. Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30 second increments until completely melted and smooth.
7. Dip the bottom of each bar in the chocolate and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
8. Add the remaining melted chocolate to a Ziploc bag and snip a tiny piece of the corner. Pipe the melted chocolate over the top of each bar.
9. Add mini-M&Ms on top. Let the chocolate on the counter for about 30 minutes or place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to speed up the hardening process.
10. Serve and enjoy! Store in an airtight container on the counter.
