My wife loves to make peanut butter energy bars.

i used to post recipes on here but people stopped following along when they noticed they were vegan and i often got crappy comments in the posts so i decided not to do it anymore
real shame, i really enjoyed sharing but its not fun when your thread is just filled with "wheres the bacon haha" and than photos of bacon , and snide remarks.

the pb squares i followed this recipe but modified a bit
: http://www.naturalgirlmodernworld.com/home/chocolate-peanut-butter-squares
i used enjoy life chocolate chips that are vegan , gluten free , free of preservatives etc. much healthier choice, but use whatever chocolate you have on hand i assume
for the puffed rice cereal i use nature path puffed rice, its just puffed rice literally, much healthier than rice krisipes http://us.naturespath.com/product/rice-puffs
and for the coco powder i used raw cacao powder, http://www.amazon.com/Healthworks-Certified-Organic-Cacao-Powder/dp/B00EKLPLU4
if you dont know the difference between the two this is a good page thats simple http://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-food/cacao-vs-cocoa-what-you-need-to-know/
honestly thats prob the biggest thing you should sub in baking because the health benefits are much needed but still get the chocolate desired affect.

if you have no worked with medjool dates before make sure they are medjool dates those are the ones that create a creamy caramel when processed in the food processor.
also a tip because i keep mine in the fridge soak them in hot or warm water for 10 minutes before you process them, or else they do not break up nicely and they wont give you the desired binder affect for your treats

I'm gonna have to find these ingredients. I'm not sure where to purchase them in my area. I'll post when I make some.

Screw the haters. Yea I love bacon. But I love everything. And I always want to try new things. Except celery. Celery can go fuck itself
