S'more's Granola Bars


I'm having a really hard time so far this new year eating healthy. These just don't help! However, they were a good treat that my family enjoyed. Tomorrow's a new day, right? Click on the title, and you'll see the original post off of sophistimom's blog.

S’mores Granola Bars
5 cups rolled oats or rolled mixed grains (I used a 5 grain mix from a health food store)
1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup honey
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups chocolate chips
2 cups mini marshmallows

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a 13×9 inch pan with parchment paper so that it comes up on the sides.

2. In a large bowl, combine oats, condensed milk, honey, salt, butter, cinnamon, and 1 cup of chocolate chips. With wet hands, press the mixture into the prepared pan(Really press it so it holds together). Bake for 18 minutes on the center rack of the oven. Remove from oven, sprinkle on marshmallows, and place on the upper rack of oven, and bake for 5 minutes more to toast the marshmallows. Allow to cool completely.

3. Melt the remaining cup of chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-30 second intervals, and drizzle over the top of the granola bars.
