Granola Bars
Posted in /Cooking/Snacks on Saturday, July 15, 2017
Sometimes homemade is just BETTER! These are soft and chewy and can be made with whatever special ingredients you want.
Ingredients
1/2 cup Margarine
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
4 cups Granola
2 cup Flaky cereal (or any cereal on hand Vector was a favorite of ours)
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Directions
1. Line a 9 × 13 baking pan with parchment. Lightly butter or spray the sides
2. Combine butter, honey and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the butter is melted.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until the sugar is dissolved, 2 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
4. Add the Granola and rice cereal into the saucepan and fold them into the sauce until evenly coated.
5. Spread the mixture into the prepared pans and press firmly with a spatula to evenly fill. Sprinkle the chocolate and peanut butter chips onto the top of the granola and gently press them down with the spatula.
6. Let sit for 15-20 minutes or until mostly cooled and set; lift out of the pan and cut into bars.
7. Do not refrigerate or the bars will become very hard to eat.
