There is something about the holidays that brings out the baker in everyone. This year with a little one arriving any time I’m all about semi-homemade. I still get the smell of the fresh baked brownies in the oven, but I get a little help from my boxed friends. For this weeks treat to get me through the week I picked up some buy one get one brownies and used this Post cereal coupon on coupons.com for Golden Crisp® cereal.

I wanted to make a special treat for the holidays, not just a plain box of brownies. So to add a little to my brownies I used the Golden Crisp® cereal for a golden crust that would be baked into the bottom of my brownies. These brownies are so simple to make and you can whip them up in less then 15 minutes prep time. This is a perfect treat for movie night with your family.

With this Golden Crisp® cereal purchase you can also enter to win the SING© movie sweepstakes with a grand prize of $100,000 or other prizes such as movie tickets, speakers, and more. There is no purchase required. You can learn all about this sweepstakes here–the movie SING© will be in theaters December 21st, 2016.
