Honey Chip Granola Bars
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + cooling
YIELD: about 4 dozen.
I first tried these not-too-sweet bars at my mother-in-law's house. A marshmallow, honey and peanut butter mixture is delicious over crunchy cereal, oats and nuts. Be sure to let the bars cool a bit before pressing the mini chocolate chips on top or they'll melt.
