Peanut Butter Bars

Oh yum!!!! What a treat!!

I put a little bit of melted chocolate on top of these, but you cold omit that if you want it even healthier. I'm really watching what I fix for my family and this is a special treat! :)

Peanut Butter Bars

1 tbsp honey
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup water
1 cup natural peanut butter (crunchy or smooth- whatever you like)
1/2 cup oat flour, or quick cooking oats (bet you could use almond flour if you want it gluten free... or just get the gluten free oats...)
Chocolate chips- optional

Add honey, vanilla, cottage cheese, cinnamon and water to blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Pour into bowl and add peanut butter, sir to combine. Add the oar flour or quick cooking oats and stir to combine.

Put a piece of Saran wrap into a 9x9 baking dish. Make sure the edges of saran wrap are hanging over a little bit. Pour your peanut butter goodness into pan and spread all over. Use hands to make flat and even all over and pushing into corners.

If adding chocolate over top, melt about 1/2 cups chocolate chips of our choice and pour over the top. Put in frig to set and once set break or cut into pieces and place in covered container. Keep in freezer or frig!

We love these because they are healthy and have just a bit of chocolate. Sometimes you need a little bit of chocolate! ;)

Hope y enjoy these!! :)
