1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup honey
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 cups quick cooking oats
1 cup crispy rice cereal
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp mini chocolate chips

In a large bowl stir the cereal and oats together, set aside, in a small saucepan melt butter, honey and brown sugar cook over medium high heat until it starts to bubble, reduce heat and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, pour in vanilla and stir, pour over cereal and oat mixture, stir well to combine. Pour into a lightly greased jelly roll pan (about 12X8X1) Press out to be about 3/4 inch thickness. Sprinkle on the chocolate chips and press them lightly. I placed in the freezer for 30 minutes to set up. Then slice into bars. Store in a airtight container.
