  1. I made these with my two year old. We’ll be making them again. Loved that she could eat the ingredients while we were making the bars 🙂

  5. Hi: I’ve not been able to download the nutritional info? Any chance you could put here?

    Thank you

  6. I stumbled across this on Facebook, and it looked so good. My wife made them last night and they ARE so good!

    The only downside is that they are so tasty I have to be careful not to eat the whole batch right away! That would defeat the purpose of such a healthy snack.

    As we say in our house, “This is a do again!”

    These taste so good ! I have a peanut allergy, so I used almond butter instead of peanut Butter. I replaced the honey with rice malt syrup and coco nibs instead of chocolate. Delicious!
