Seeded chocolate energy bars
An easy, healthy and yummy no-bake snack that kids will devour in no time. Loaded with grains and seeds. Also very forgiving - substitute other ingredients for the cereal part, such as ground or chopped nuts, flax seeds, etc. Or, if you don't have enough of one ingredient, just add more of another.

Really simple. Makes a fabulous traybake if you are making to sell at a sports event as it looks so damn healthy! - 21 Sep 2012

Very quick and easy to make. I think my scales are off so my quantities were a bit different, but the bars still tasted gorgeous. Probably not very healthy with all that sugar and honey, but whatever! - 05 Nov 2013
