Have you heard of HAPPYMELTS yet? They are a delicious, naturally sweetened freeze-dried yogurt snack that melt in baby’s mouth and are easy to pick up and swallow. The bites contain real organic fruit and yogurt and are also fortified with calcium and vitamin D.

HAPPYMELTS contain over two billion live and active prebiotic and probiotic cultures boosted with a variety of health benefits for babies. Probiotics have been shown in some studies reduce the severity of diarrhea and certain allergies in children, and prebiotics work in conjunction with the probiotics to encourage the development of these gut-friendly bacteria. The consumption of pre- and probiotics together has also been linked to a decrease the number of respiratory infections in some children.

The snacks are high protein, low in sugar, and contain no artificial coloring, no artificial flavors, and no GMOs. HAPPYMELTS can be purchased at the following retailers: Babies R Us, Whole Foods and Target for a suggested retail price of $3.69 to 4.19.

Do you want an easy snack to make for the whole family?   For under $20 you can create a sweet crunchy snack in just a few minutes purchasing the ingredients at your local grocery store. 

The chocolate topping is optional (step 3), I personally don’t add it and the mix still tastes great.     The actual recipe is listed below as well as a link to the recipe from Chex cereal.      My nieces and nephews give this a two thumbs up.

Ingredients

Step 1   Cover cookie sheet with waxed paper. In large microwavable bowl, microwave brown sugar, butter and corn syrup uncovered on High 1 to 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute, until melted and smooth. Stir in baking soda until dissolved. Stir in cereals.

Step 2  Microwave on High 3 minutes, stirring each minute. Spread on cookie sheet to cool, about 10 minutes. Break into bite-size pieces.

Step 3   In microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips uncovered on High about 1 minute 30 seconds or until chocolate can be stirred smooth (bowl will be hot). Drizzle chocolate over snack. Refrigerate about 30 minutes or until chocolate is set.
