I used raw, unprocessed honey and followed the recipe exactly. Came out perfect, no problem forming the bars. They were very good. Chocolate did melt, but nobody seemed to mind. Cut them into individual squares and put them in the freezer. They thaw quickly and taste fresh. The whole family enjoyed them.

These tasted great but sort of fell apart. I wouldn't necessarily call them muesli bars, either. I think almond butter is too spendy and didn't just have any on hand so I used 1.5 cups peanut butter and that worked just fine. I used white chocolate chips and added about a cup of raisins as well. Maybe I put too much "stuff" in. All in all a great snack.

These bars are tasty! I halved the recipe and it still worked out great. Next time I will try adding a little bit less honey as it was a bit overpowering to the peanut butter using the ratio in the recipe. I waited a bit before adding the chocolate chips, but as other reviewers, not long enough cause they still melted in. Still got the peanut butter / chocolate taste, but next time I'll try being a bit more patient.

Very tasty yet 4 stars cause I could not get it to form into a bar. I was out of honey, used sugar , maybe thats why. Thanks for a great recipe though!

I made this and we loved it, but MUESLI??? For my second batch I cut the puffed rice from 7 cups to 5, and put in a cup of diced dried apricot and a cup of raisins. It's still beautiful eating and I might move further into the healthy stuff next time.

I liked this recipe but next time I'd modify it a bit more. It was too sweet and not peanut buttery enough. I would also add more nuts, dried fruit, and skip the chocolate (carob) chips. As it was I didn't have almond butter so I used 1.5 c peanut butter. I forgot the vanilla. I also added raisins as some people suggested and let the coating mixture cool a bit before adding it to the oats and rice so it wouldn't melt the carob chips. It was definitely easy and made a lot of bars.

This is an amazing recipe, everything about it the texture and the taste is great. I changed the chocolate pieces for raisins and added seeds and nuts, and it was fantastic as a fairly healthy snack, with no artificial flavours or anything.

Wonderful recipe, although I wouldn't go as far to eat it for breakfast (it's not quite that healthy), but definately an easy snack. My mother eats these like there is no tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe!!!

I really liked these bars a lot and they're very easy to make. They were sweet, but the honey flavor wasn't overpowering as it is in some recipes. I thought the texture was great -- crispy and chewy, not soggy. The one thing I would consider changing is letting the hot ingredients cool a bit before adding to the dry ingredients because the chocolate chips melted -- the bars tasted chocolatey instead of like the peanut and almond butter. They would also probably be very good without any chocolate chips.
