I omitted the coconut and pressed it down firmly. They are real good. I'd make them again!

After a few modifications, this was amazing! I happened to have all this stuff on hand and I wanted to use it up so I tried this recipe. I added peanuts to the dry ingredients and the chocolate powder went into the wet ingredients, as suggested by another reviewer. I thought that the wet ingredients were not wet enough, so I also added 3 tbsp of butter. I originally tried pouring the wet ingredients on top of the dry ingredients, as written the recipe. However, they would not seep down (wet ingredients still too thick), so I ended up just mixing them in. I'm so glad I did; it was not crumbly at all, and it was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again, with the modifications as described.

This is a really good recipe. I left out the coconut and sesame seeds, I just added more sunflower seeds. I also used Special K cereal. Very tasty and good for you!

I LOVE this recipe. It's the best way I've found to get plenty of raw nuts and seeds into my kids. (Baking them compromises the natural oils and makes them much less nutritious.) Tasty without being too sweet. I cut the brown sugar down to 1/4 cup, and substituted some of the oats with ground flax.

Quick, easy and delish!! Will make again. I used almond butter and no sugar, just the honey. I bought some healthier grain rice cereal at the helathfood store.

I love these bars! They are not so healthy with all that sugar, but there is some good nutrition in them, especially if you add in some extras like flax seed and nuts.

I'm so glad I found the recipe again! I've made this so many times but misplaced my well loved printed copy! I toast both sesame seeds and flax seeds, sub. 1/4 of flax seeds for the sesame. I also use salted sunflower seeds and unsweetened coconut. Also, to make things easier, I put the cocoa powder in the wet ingredients, mixes better this way. I've made for many people and always get asked for the recipe, I give them the original, never MY changes!

I hate giving bad reviews but this was a crumbly mess. I didn't change a thing either. What a waste of some expensive ingredients too. This recipe is for the birds...

These are really good. But because I give recipes I like better five stars, I'm giving this one four.

I left out the coconut and added some wheat germ. This is a good recipe to mix and match with whatever is in your cabinet. Husband gave it 4 stars.

I work in a school, so nuts & peanuts are a big no-no. We made this recipe in my baking class, using tahini (sesame paste) instead of peanut butter. It was absolutely delicious. Thank you for this recipe.

This is very good and easy. I have made it twice and it disappears quickly. I cut down on the brown sugar after the first time because it was a little too sweet for us.

This is a great, healthy snack to make! The cocoa gives the granola bar great flavor, while not being overly sweet. Very good. My kids gobbled this one up!!

These were a great treat to throw together for a family treat reminding me of the calssic chocolate no-bake cookies that my grandmother made. OOPs, I left out the peanut butter. We'll just mix that in now. Uh oh, too bad I forgot to add the crispies. No problem, just toss them in. Oops, I forgot the oatmeal too! Ah, it's only been a few minutes, stir those in too. After finally getting ALL the ingredients mixed in I pressed them into the pan (again) and let them set up. They ended up being a bit crumbly, though next time they will be perfect. Also I substituted flax seed for the sunflower seed.

These were really simple to make, and I didn't find them to be at all crumbly. I also packed them into the pan, so perhaps that's why. I prefer these to the usual no-bake cookies.

We really enjoy these bars and what I do is pack the mixture down into the pan to keep the bars from being crumbly. I also stir the cocoa into the hot liqiud before mixing with the cereal.

The taste was great, the idea wonderful, however, it was somewhat crumbly. I will try this recipe again and revise it to make it more "stay together".
