Submitted by HoosierMomOf5

"I found this recipe on the Dollar Stretcher site. These aren't what I would call "granola" bars but, it doesn't matter what you name them, they're good! I like them better with raisin instead of the chocolate chips."

I changed it up so I need to rate this that way I won't loose my version of this. Follow Recipe, left out wheat germ cause I didn't have any but added 3/4 cup chocolate chips, 3/4 cup craisins, 3/4 chopped almonds, and 3/4 cup coconut. baked for 22 minutes. PHENOMENAL!!!

Yum! I already had all items, so was perfect. Didn't add the choc chips, but plenty sweet without. I did throw in some flax. I call them candy bars! They look dry, but are soft & moist. Easy too.
