Great simple recipe. After this recipe there is one for the homemade granola, but I've also just bought some honey flavored simply naked granola and that works just as well. To add chocolate to these bars. After they are finished being made put melt 4 tbs of butter and then 4oz of your favorite chocolate in the microwave. Then put a cooling rack in a cookie sheet lined with parchment and place the bars on the rack. pour the chocolate on top and the catched drippings can be remelted until all the bars are coated!
