Lightly butter a 9 inch square pan and set aside.
In a large bowl combine cereal and chocolate chips and peanuts if you are using them.
In small bowl heat honey and sugar (Splenda) in microwave. I do this slowly, 20-30 seconds at a time and stir till fully blended. Add peanut butter to honey mixture till it is smooth.
Pour the honey mixture over the Cheerios mixture and mix well till everything is well coated. Immediately press cereal mixture into the buttered pan. Smooth with damp hands or spatula.
Cool completely. Cut into desired size and shape bars and enjoy.

If anyone has a recipe for the Cheerios cereal bars, like the ones sold in the grocery store. I sure would love to try it.

I would imagine they'd be the same as rice krispy treats...just butter and marshmallows and cereal. Do the Cheerio bars have that "milk" frosting on them?
