SWAG BARS (CHOCOLATE & PEANUT BUTTER BARS)



Swag Bars (Chocolate & Peanut Butter Bars) image

This recipe was in the Jan/Feb 2009 issue of Cooking Light magazine. It was in their "Lighten Up" section - where a reader can submit a favorite recipe and COoking Light will make it healthier. This was very tasty and the kids LOVED them. Next time I might try and sub honey or brown rice syrup for the HFCS. I also increased the chocolate a teeny bit and spread it over the bars instead of drizzling it.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE, PEANUT BUTTER, CORN FLAKE BARS



No-Bake Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Corn Flake Bars image

For some reason, men always seem to go gah-gah over these. :) They are very easy to make, and it is a great way to use up the end of the corn flakes. I also like this recipe because it uses fewer ingredients than all the other ones I have seen.
