Healthy-ish chocolate granola bar recipe

[blueyedbaker]

 Does anyone have a recipe for a granola bar that has chocolate on the bottom? My daughter loves granola bars and it's like every other time I can find them in the store and I hate having to tell her we won't have them this week. I've made granola but never tried granola bars.

try allrecipes.com or cooks.com

That does not look healthy but it does look like a very tasty granola bar! I'll have to try it any way. Thanks

I did but I was hoping to get a recipe that someone has actually tried and liked.

I would suggest googling it or looking on Pinterest.

This doesn't have chocolate on the bottom, but it is pretty healthy! Instead of the extra cup of oats, I use 1/3 cup ground flaxseed, 1/3 cup sesame seeds, 1/3 cup cocoa powder. I bake it for 25 minutes, let it cool completely, then stick it in the fridge.

When they are cooled I could cut them up and dip them in chocolate. This recipe looks like it would work! Any idea how to figure out the calorie and fat content?

I would cut it after it has been in the fridge so they stick together better.

If you use dark chocolate... that stuff is full of antioxidants, and it's a natural pain reliever.
