In large bowl, lightly sprayed with vegetable pan spray, combine cereal and peanuts. Set aside. Place marshmallow, peanut butter and caramel topping in 1-quart microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high 1 1/2 minutes, stirring at 45-second intervals until mixture is smooth. Pour caramel mixture over cereal and peanuts; stir to coat. (Tip: Spraying spoon with vegetable pan spray makes it easier to stir.) Set aside until ready to use.

cone into the Candy Melts“ mixture. Immediately dip the cone in Rainbow
Nonpareils and set aside to dry.
