Clif Bars from Amy

From Amy in Marble Cliff ward. These were DELICIOUS.

1-1/4 C Rice Krispies
1 C oatmeal
2 T flaxseed
1/4 C dried fruit (she used craisins)
1/4 C chopped nuts/seeds/chocolate chips
1/3 C molasses
1/3 C honey
1 C peanut butter
1 t vanilla
1 t cinnamon

Combine Rice Krispies, oats, flaxseed, dried fruit, and nuts (not choc. chips yet) in a large bowl. Combine PB, honey, and molasses in a sauce pan over medium hear, stirring until melted and well blended. Stir in vanilla and cinnamon. Pour PB mixture over cereal mixture, stirring until coated (use a wooden spoon at first, then get your hands wet and combine the rest. It will be sticky, but this way you can coat everything). If you are using chocolate chips, let the combined mixture cool for 10 minuets before adding chips. Wet hands again and firmly press mixture (the tighter the better) in an 8x8 pan (sprayed with Pam). Tear off a piece of wax paper and use it to really press the mixture down into the pan. Cool pan in fridge at least 1 hour. To make them ready to go, cut up and wrap each clif bar tightly in plastic wrap. Store in the fridge. Enjoy!
