No-Bake Energy Snacks

I was blog hopping  last night and saw this simple  recipe of no-bake peanut butter  energy snacks.  I thought of trying it but I did not have peanut so I used the left over  trail mix that we have in the kitchen. 
 Here's what you need:
2 cups quick oats
1 cup trail mix (with almonds, raisin, and cranberries).
1 tsp sesame seeds
1 tsp M&Ms
3 tbsp butter
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preparations:
In a bowl, mix together oats and trail mix.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan. 
  • Add the  honey and brown sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil and stir for 2 ½ minutes. Remove from the heat. 
  • Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until blended, then thoroughly mix in the oat mixture.
Spread the mixture evenly in a greased container.
Allow to set before cutting and serving. It tastes so good and I will be  putting a slice or two of these in my husband's lunch tomorrow.  You can try making it, it is quick and very easy to make.
