These do have a good crunch. Mine turned out soft but I did make a few changes. I used sunflower butter instead and a few other modifications.
A little difficult to find all ingredients and a little pricey to make, but absolutely delicious and well worth it. Great after morning work outs. My kids love them too.
my family loves these, even my 18 month old. I tried them with Peanuts instead of almonds and my husband liked them better. I have also tried adding cinnamon,that was good too!
I used a marble rolling pin to push them into the pan and to condense them so they were not crumbly. We are addicted.
These are very tasty-I liked the crunch but the next time I make I am going to use less peanut butter and honey. I felt the ratio of PB was way too much.
My husband said we should always have these in the house. I wrapped them individually and froze them. We grab a few if we're headed out just in case it's pushing meal time. It will be cheaper to make them the next time since I will have most of the ingredients on hand.
We Love them! I'm just now getting ready to make them for a second time. They're very easy to put together. I have a 9 x 13 pan and I cut 16 bars. My husband's only request was to add some chocolate chips, so I found the Nestle mini chips I will be putting in this time.
