No Bake Butterscotch Pecan Granola Bites

It’s Labor Day weekend! That means traveling, family time, and snacking! For us, it means snacking while traveling to my family!  Since it was 100 degrees yesterday, I decided I probably shouldn’t turn my oven back on like I did for the caramel apple oatmeal bars to make snacks! I needed to find something that would fulfill the “snacky” food requirement that didn’t require baking.

I opted for a version of my no-bake Peanut Butter Mini Chip Granola Bites. I switched up the chocolate for butterscotch and added pecans and crisp rice cereal to give them some crunch, because we all know that good snacking food has a crunch to it! 🙂 The last time I made these my husband ate them up in one day, so I figured he wouldn’t mind if I made them again!

Have a great weekend! Enjoy your family, friends, and of course, good food! And, if you need something to snack on, give these a try!
