What can i do with this? :)

Hey all, i was just clearing through my cupboards and have found a box of cocopops (full), a bag of porrige oats, a few weetabix and some frosties. All of these are past their best before dates but im quite reluctant to throw them away. (im assuming cereal is pretty safe even after BBE's?)

Was hoping to maybe make them into some kind of ceral bar/flapjack type thing? Any ideas whether this would work okay and maybe some recipes?

Many Thanks

    Here's a recipe for weetabix cake.

    icon1.gifDelicious WEETABIX cake!
    Easy peasy recipe for Weetabix cake, its so delicious and so easy to make, you don't even need scales!

    2 crushed Weetabix
    1 cup of sultanas
    2 cups of Self raising flour
    1 cup of sugar

    Mix these dry ingredients together, then add

    1 cup of milk and a teaspoon of mixed spice

    Stir again and pour the mix into a greased loaf tin, bake at 325 degrees for about 45 mins.

    Its wonderful slightly warm and always with butter/spread.

    You can make crispie cakes with the coco pops and frosties and flapjacks or twinks hobnobs with the porridge oats.
