2. Cook Syrup Mixture: In a large saucepan, combine the corn syrup and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture becomes bubbly. This should take around 5 minutes.

3. Incorporate Peanut Butter: Once the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is bubbly, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the peanut butter until it’s fully incorporated into the syrup mixture.

4. Add Cereal and Raisins: Next, add the Special K cereal and seedless raisins to the saucepan. Stir everything together until the cereal and raisins are evenly coated with the peanut butter syrup mixture.

5. Press into Pan: Prepare a 13×9-inch pan by coating it with cooking spray. Using the back of a spoon, press the cereal mixture evenly and firmly into the pan.

6. Let Cool: Allow the bars to cool in the pan until they reach room temperature. This should take approximately 10 minutes.

7. Cut into Bars: Once cooled, cut the mixture in the pan into individual bars using a sharp knife. Aim for 16 evenly sized bars, but feel free to adjust the size to your preference.

8. Serve and Enjoy: Your Lower-Fat Special K Bars are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them as a delightful snack or a guilt-free dessert option. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
