Chewy Granola Bars

Best Choice

4 cups extra raisins Raisin Bran cereal, lightly crushed

1 cup rice crisps cereal

1 cup quick oats

¼ cup chopped almonds

2/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

2/3 cup light corn syrup

¼ cup margarine

1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350F.

Lightly grease bottom and sides of a 9-inch square pan.

Combine Raisin Bran, rice crisp, oats and almonds in a large bowl; set aside.

So many things! So little space!


Bring brown sugar, corn syrup and margarine to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

Pour sugar mixture over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated.

This is the good stuff.


Press mixture into prepared pan.

Bake at 350F for 10 minutes.

Cool completely. Cut into bars.

Boom! Bars!

My Rating: 4/5 "There's a lot more to these than the ones you buy in a box. They're definitely gooier and chewier, and the variety of ingredients keeps your tongue on its toes. Be generous as you grease the pan - these puppies are difficult to pry out of there, even if you wait until they're completely cool."
