Homemade Cliff Bars
From This Chick CooksBy Erin at Dinners, Dishes and Desserts
1 1/4 cups Rice Krispies
1 cup quick-cooking oats
3 Tbls ground flax seed (or you can just substitute oats –this is what I did)
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup marshmallows
1 cup quick-cooking oats
3 Tbls ground flax seed (or you can just substitute oats –this is what I did)
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup marshmallows
¼ cup chopped peanuts
1/4 cup honey, maple syrup or light molasses (I used honey)
2 Tbls brown sugar
1/3 cup nut butter (I always use peanut butter)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 Tbls brown sugar
1/3 cup nut butter (I always use peanut butter)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Glaze
Chocolate Chips (1/2 cup for full 8 in pan – less if you just want a drizzle), melted
Combine the syrup and peanut butter in a small pan over medium heat, stirring until melted and well-blended. Stir in vanilla.
Pour mixture over cereal, stir until coated. You may need to use your hands to get it blended well. Press mixture firmly into an 8-inch square pan that has been sprayed with non stick spray.
Pour melted chocolate over the top (or drizzle if that is your thing). Cool in pan on a wire rack and chill at least 30 minutes to help it set. Cut into approximately 12 bars. Store in refrigerator.
