No Bake Granola Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
2 cups Rice Krispies
1/2 cup craisins (dried cranberries)
1/2 cup shredded coconut
3/4 cup almonds, sliced
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preparation

Line a 9 x 13 inch sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Mix rolled oats, cereal, craisins, coconut and almonds in a large bowl. Set aside. (I cut the coconut with two knives so it will not be stringy.)
In a saucepan, mix corn syrup and brown sugar. Bring to a boil while stirring. Add peanut butter and vanilla. Stir just to blend well.
Pour over oats and fruit mixture. Stir and mix well. Press mixture firmly onto pan. (I place a piece of wax paper on top while pressing hard.) Let cool and cut into bars. Store in air-tight container. Freezes well, if securely wrapped.
Enjoy!
