Recipe

Okay, here's the MOPS craft/bar recipe for those who wanted it:

If you want to make the jar, put in:
-1/2 bag of plain M&Ms (it wasn't the single serving bag but one of the bigger sizes--maybe the "small"??)
-Arrange 8 Peeps in the jar (harder than it looks if you have a small opening!)
-1/3 cup brown sugar--pack it down so you can fit next item
-crush a package of graham crackers (the box comes with 2 packages, right? )--add some graham crackers to jar but they might not all fit so shove baggie of crushed crackers in top of jar.

When you are ready to make the bars, empty contents into bowl. You have 2 options w/the Peeps: cut them up and mix them in or leave them whole and set them aside. Add 1/2 cup melted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla to mixture and mix well. Pat it into a greased 9-inch baking dish. Arrange whole Peeps on top, if that was your choice. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting.

I cut it into 9 huge pieces and it was roughly 6 WW points/piece. I chose the option of leaving the Peeps whole because I thought it would be pretty. :) I spread the Peeps a bit when they came out of the oven to cover more area. Enjoy!
