• 1 cup Sunspire peanut butter chips (only ones on the market trans fat free)
• 1 cup Organic Sunspire Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
• 2 cups Fiber One cereal

Method:

1. In 2-quart saucepan, heat both types of chips over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth.
2. Gently stir in cereal until well coated.
3. Drop mixture by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper to form 24 “gremlins.”
4. Press 2 baking bits onto each to resemble eyes.
5. Refrigerate until set.

Kitchen Tips: To create werewolf gremlins, add two slivered almonds to each cookie for fangs.

* SunDrops®, a natural alternative to M&M's®. These are coated chocolate candies contain no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. Their bright candy color comes from beet juice, beta carotene and natural caramel. Their yummy chocolate centers are made with rich milk chocolate, sweetened with evaporated can juice and a touch of unsulphered molasses.

• Organic Dark Chocolate Almonds – great for sugar sensitive kids. The essential fat from the almonds helps the bodies response to the sugar in the chocolate
