C-3PO Bites – an easy no bake snack with Honey Nut Cheerios, peanut butter, and Reese’s Pieces. These bites are perfect for any Star Wars or just for snacking!
Today is the big day. Do you know what day it is? So many people across the country have been counting down the days until now. Stars Wars: The Force Awakens is officially in theaters!! Do you have tickets? I think theaters all over are pretty much sold out for the first few days. Luckily my husband gets to go today with his work this afternoon. My 10 year old is begging to see it, so we may have some plans over his Christmas break.
To help mark the occasion, I made you C-3PO Bites. Definitely what you need to be snacking on over opening weekend. I am partnering with General Mills Cereal to bring you this fun snack – perfect for Star Wars fans across the galaxy. You may have noticed Star Wars themed packaging in the cereal aisle. Inside these specially marked boxes for a limited time, you’ll find exciting Star Wars-themed premiums, like the Droid Viewers that are available now. Keep an eye out, because in January select Star Wars cereal boxes will contain exclusive Collectible Decals that glow in the dark and feature BB-8, Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, Stormtrooper, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and you guessed it, C-3PO! Watch for them in specially marked boxes of Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, MultiGrain Cheerios and Cookie Crisp.
These C-3PO Bites are super easy to make and perfect for any Star Wars themed party you are going to. Or really just an after school snack, a lunch box treat, or really just any time! Just a few minutes and no oven required! I used Honey Nut Cheerios for their golden yellow color and then picked out the yellow Reese’s pieces from the bag to make them C-3PO approved. My husband and son at these so quickly, I had to make a second batch right away. These bites are definitely addicting and an easy snack.
And if you want to throw an epic party, you will also need this Mini Trix Jedi Snack Mix with Lightsaber Pretzels from Cravings of a Lunatic. So excited to be joining forces with Kim and sharing these Star Wars snacks with you today.

Erin these are stinking cute I can barely take it. I just want to reach into the screen and grab a bunch. I can't wait to try these. This was such a fun campaign to work on. Thanks for including my treat. I heart you.
How did you guys like the movie? We went twice. To the IMAX both times no less. B wanted to see it upon his arrival so we went on K's birthday. Then we went back again when his GF flew in. Loved it both times. So cool to see all the little easter eggs they leave in the movie. Love that the lead was female too. Girl power.
