Granny's Frito Candy

When I was growing up, there was a lady that lived next door to us, Granny.
She had the best recipes, but one that has always stuck out is her Frito Candy.
My mom and I have been looking for her recipe for years, with no success.
But ALAS! My mom made rice krispie treats for Thanksgiving and added something to it that really made it taste like Frito Candy.
So Mom headed out to the store to get more marshmallows and see if this was what we have been looking for....AND IT WAS!!!

Granny's Frito Candy
INGREDIENTS:
~1 stick of butter/margarine
~2 bags of Fritos
~1 bag of mini marshmallows
~1 cup of peanut butter

DIRECTIONS:
Melt butter in a pan over med/low heat. Once melted, add the peanut butter until creamy then toss in the marshmallows until they are all melted. It should look like this:

Pour that into the bowl of Fritos & mix until coated.

Spread out onto wax paper & let cool


You can break it up into pieces and ENJOY!!!
