Peanut Butter Granola Bars

During some recent surfing I found these bars at Stephanie’s Kitchen. I have really wanted to try making my own granola bars, but never got around to purchasing all the necessary ingredients. However, when I saw that this recipe only four ingredients and essentially no baking time I placed the recipe on my to do list. This recipe is quick and easy and turned out quite nice. Since I pack my hubby a granola bar everyday for a snack, this is a great start to cutting costs (and calories…).  You can see her post here, and I have added the recipe below. Enjoy!

 Peanut Butter Granola Bars

(from Stephanie’s Kitchen)

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups granola
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used a Ghirardelli Bar)

Directions:

In a bowl, mix together the honey and peanut butter until smooth. Add the granola and mix until well coated. Pat into a 8X8 greased pan and sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Place in a 350 degrees for 2-3 minutes or until chocolate is melted. Smooth out chocolate over the top of the granola. Chill until set. Cut into squares

Quick, easy and wonderful.

    It doesn’t get any better than home-made granola bars… unless peanut butter’s involved, that is :)

    These look great!
