Cooking Instructions
1.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). In a large mixing bowl, add the Rice Krispies® Cereal (1/2 cup), Unsweetened Shredded Coconut (1/2 cup), Dried Apricots (1 handful), and Pistachios (4 Tbsp).
2.
In a skillet on medium heat melt the Butter (3 Tbsp). Toast the old Old Fashioned Rolled Oats (1 1/2 cups) and add to mixing bowl with other dry ingredients.
3.
In the skillet combine the Honey (2/3 cup), Brown Sugar (4 Tbsp), melted butter and Vanilla Extract (2 tsp). Bring to a simmer.
4.
Pour the sauce into the dry ingredients and mix together.
5.
Line a 9 x 13 baking pan with parchment. Press mixture firmly down and against edges of pan. It's ok if they don't match up perfectly. Bake for 15-20 minutes. When finished, place the granola on a rack to cool.
6.
As the granola bars cool, prepare the cacao chocolate drizzle. Start by creating a double boiler by filling a small pot with water and bring the water to a boil. Place another bowl balanced on top.
7.
Add 60% Cacao Chocolate Chips (1/2 cup), Coconut Oil (4 tsp) and Coconut Milk (1 splash). Stir frequently until melted.
8.
When cool, slice the granola with a sharp serrated knife.
9.
Drizzle cacao chocolate over the bars, and sprinkle them with Chia Seeds (as needed) and Sea Salt (to taste). Place in fridge to harden the chocolate.
10.
Enjoy!
