Found this recipe, and I'm going to make it for my Dad's wife. She's on a high protein diet, and is addicted to sweets, so this should be a good one for her. AND, it's GF, as long as you buy safe oats! Not sure about the dried cranberries. I may have to leave those out!
Oatmeal Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Candy Bars
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter
2/3 cup honey
1/2 cup coconut oil (no substitutes, this is what gives its creamy texture and flavor)
2 cups oats (not instant)
1 1/4 cups mini chocolate chips
3/4 cup dried cranberries
Directions:
In a medium sized saucepan, melt together peanut butter, honey and coconut oil.
Remove from heat and add oats, chocolate chips and dried cranberries. Stir until combined and chocolate chips are melted.
Spread into a 9x13 pan. Refrigerate until hardened, about an hour.
Store in refrigerator.
