Hi: I’ve not been able to download the nutritional info? Any chance you could put here?
Thank you
We’re working on fixing this. Site glitch. Thank you for bearing with us!
These look fantastic!! I can imagine so many flavor combinations. Thanks for sharing
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!”
I love it!!
I made the bars and used almond butter. They cut beautifully and I wrapped in wax paper. They are delicious.

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!

If I was looking for the macro count does anyone have it?
