No Bake Chocolate-Peanut Flaxseed Butter Bars
December 23, 2011
No Bake recipes bar cookie recipes are some of my favorite cookie/bar types of desserts, especially this time of year when I’m so busy. I quickly mixed up these up one afternoon, and my kids told me these were a “home run” (well that was what the boys said). My daughter loved them even though she isn’t a coconut fan. These No Bake Chocolate Peanut Bars call for ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. These make a great afternoon snack, dessert (with milk) and an easy homemade gift for Christmas or Hanukkah.
No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Flaxseed Bars

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup old fashioned oats
3 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1/2 cup semisweet choc chips
1/2 cup coconut
2. Combine oats, flaxseed, chocolate chips and coconut and stir til combined. Add peanut butter mixture, mixing well. Press into lightly greased foil-lined 8 X 8 pan. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before slicing.
