Peanut Butter Alpen Bars

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 25 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 21
• 1 1/2 cups of smucker's natural creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup of clover honey (any old generic honey will do)
• 1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder (i use generic)
• 1/2 cup of alpen original organic muesli
• 1/2 cup of ocean spray craisins
• 1 pinch salt (omit the salt if you use something like...skippy peanut butter or jiff)
• 1/4-1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted in microwave (but i feel necessary - i love chocolate) (optional)

Recipe

• 1 i bought all my ingredients except the alpen at wal----.
• 2 get out the mixer right now because there is no way that you can mix these ingredients well enough by hand.
• 3 put all ingredients in the bowl, mixing slowly at first until just about blended.
• 4 using a paddle or spoon, carefully fold melted chocolate chips into mix and mix and mix until well blended.
• 5 dump contents unto wax paper, topping with another piece of wax paper and press into about a 7" square.
• 6 slice into whatever size bar you like (i aim for around 21) remembering that peanut butter is extremely fattening.
• 7 refridgerate after slicing.
