These are amazing!!!! The best no bake bars ever!!!!
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup coconut oil
2 cups dry oats
1 cup shredded coconut
1 1/4 cup dark choc chips
1 tsp vanilla.
Melt peanut butter, Honey and coconut oil over med low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add to oats, shredded coconut, choc chips and vanilla. Stir until choc chips are entirely melted. Pour into 9x13 pan and cool in fridge. When it sets cut into bars.

I made these today to satisfy my sweet tooth! I didn't have coconut so just added another cup of oats!

Sounds good, I do have gluten free oats on hand as well as the rest of the ingredients. I think I will make those.

Do you think it would still work if you cut the honey in half?

That reminds me. A friend gave me a bag of Muesli/artisanal granola that has instructions to use half the 12 ounce bag with 4 ounces of milk, 4 ounces yoghurt, 2 ounces of OJ and 1 ounce of honey.
Into a cake pan and into the fridge with it and SUPPOSEDLY it comes out a "carrot cake" after chilling overnight...no baking at all.
I will have to see that to believe it.

Of course, what is a carrot cake without a cream cheese icing?

Hmm! I find that hard to believe also.

I was thinking omit the honey and using sugar free chocolate chips. Increase the peanut butter and/or coconut milk? (for diabetic version)

Use sugar-free peanut butter, but I think you would need some honey to bind it together. Dark chocolate chips should have less sugar than milk chocolate I think.

Best PB is natural. Even better if ground on the spot I would think. No idea how fresh the peanuts are of course. I only had it ground for me when living in Guangzhou and once in another town - then the whole market packed up for the winter and the PB person did not return.

I use natural peanut butter, the chocolate I had was sugarless and gluten free.
