We eat a lot of cereal at my house. Boxes and boxes every week. My four boys don’t eat cereal just at breakfast time. Cereal is almost always part of their after school and pre-bedtime snacks. They loved eating Honey Bunches of Oats Chocolate cereal made with real cocoa. I will buy it again for all of us to enjoy.
If you are looking for a delicious gluten free cereal, you will definitely want to give this one a try. The light sweet taste of honey and the crunchy chocolatey clusters you know and love tastes especially good with milk!
Turning cereal into a macaroon was a lot easier than I thought. This was the first time I had ever tried to make macaroons. Luckily, the recipe is easy to follow. You’d never guess that one of the main ingredients in this Chocolate Coconut Macaroons recipe is a breakfast cereal. Honey Bunches of Oats Chocolate cereal is lightly crushed up and combined with shredded coconut to put a fun twist on the classic macaroon.
I ate one of the macaroons right out of the oven and it was really good, even without being dipped in melted chocolate! Once the macaroons had time to cool completely on the baking rack, I dipped the bottoms into melted chocolate and let the chocolate set completely before tasting them again. Of course, the additional chocolate makes them even more delicious.
Chocolate and coconut are one of my favorite flavor combinations, so I really enjoyed eating these easy to make macaroons. If you are a fan of chocolate and coconut, I think you will really like them, too. Give this recipe a try and let me know what you think.
