Homemade Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip “Larabars”
Mmm…. Larabars. Made of only a few simple, (mostly) healthy ingredients, they’re a better alternative to stuffing your face with junky candy bars. Larabars satisfy that craving for something sweet, gooey, delicious, and in this case, chocolatey, without leaving you with feelings of guilt, shame, or remorse. You know you’re getting real food, without all the extra unnecessary additives and processed crap. However, one thing Larabars are not is cheap. You usually pay around $5 for a box of only 5 small bars. Which means, if you’re a real sucker for the things like many of us are, or you have an entire family who loves them, that box will…
