Chewy Monkey Bars

"These are nice bars that are a little different from the regular crispy treats. I like the nutty flavor and all the different textures in them. You could very easily frost them with some melted chocolate chips too."

  1. You're right...this is a nice variation to the normal rice krispie treat. I did omit the coconut per families preference. A nice chewy bar that went together in no-time. Thanks for the idea!~ Made for PRMR.

Cat tried to bury it. I try not give anything below 3 stars. I might just leave a comment instead. If it really aggravated me, then I will definitely leave a lower star rating.
