Healthy Homemade Butterfingers

For all of you that are resisting the processed sugars and trying to keep a resolution! Here comes a quick recipe to indulge in.

Ingredients

Granola

1 1/2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup coarse crushed salt roasted peanuts

6 tablespoons PB2 powder

3-4 tablespoons water

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Butterfinger bark

1/2 cup of quality milk chocolate, melted

1 1/2 cups of crunchy peanut granola

1/4 cup salt roasted peanuts (optional)

Directions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine PB2 and water. Stir in the salt, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and oil until smooth.

2. Add in rolled oats and crushed peanuts and combine until evenly coated.

3. Spread mixture on a thin baking sheet and bake at 250F for 30 minutes stirring every 5 minutes until evenly golden brown and crunchy.

4. In a double boiler or in the microwave, melt your milk chocolate and spread half of it thinly and evenly on a silicone baking sheet or parchment paper.

5. Immediately top with a generous amount of crunchy peanut butter granola and peanuts (optional) then drizzle with remaining chocolate.

Refrigerate until firm before peeling off the silicone or parchment paper and breaking the bark into pieces. If you have extra granola you can store in an airtight container for snacking at a later time 😉
