These were so addictive! I used honey roasted peanut butter and substituted some of the corn syrup with honey and it came out great!

EXCELLENT!! I'm always on the hunt for homemade versions of store-bought granola bars and these are definitely a keeper! Substituted dried cranberries for the cherries since they were so much cheaper.

Do not over heat syrup and sugar as I did the first time I made as it sets up too much quickly & had to mix with hands & was hard to cut. Could probably use honey instead of syrup.Very Good. We both liked but don't press down too much as they get too hard.

Wow, couldn't believe how good these are. I followed the recipe except for the "cherries & raisins", I used a dried multi-berry blend (Welch's & Sunsweet both have one in the grocery stores) and I make my own peanutbutter. Yes, it has sugar it in, but they're the best tasting one's I've ever made.
