Adapted from the Pillsbury Corporation


Ingredients

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup smooth peanut butter
8 tablespoons light margarine
1/2 cup skim milk
1 1/2 cups oats cereal
1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
60 red, orange and yellow jellybeans

Directions

Line cookie sheets with foil or waxed paper. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off.

In medium saucepan, combine flour, sugar, margarine and milk. Bring to a full boil over medium-low heat. Boil vigorously for three minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter; blend well.

Add all remaining ingredients; blend well. Cool slightly. Form rounded teaspoons full of dough into small balls. (Flour hands if necessary.) Place dough on lined cookie sheets. Place one jellybean on each cookie, flattening slightly. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set cookies.
