Category: Bars

1/4 cup butter, no substitutions
1/4 cup vegetable oil
8 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup peanut butter
5 cups old-fashioned oats
5 cups crisp rice cereal
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup flaked coconut
1 cup crushed dry roasted peanuts
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

In a large bowl, combine the oats, rice cereal, cracker crumbs, coconut and dry roasted peanuts.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan combine the butter, oil and marshmallows. Cook and stir over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in honey and peanut butter. Pour hot mixture over dry ingredients and stir to combine well. Press into a greased 15x10x1 inch pan.

Quickly press in chocolate chips on top of granola bars. Cool completely. When cooled, cut into desired sized bars. Wrap individual bars in cellophane. Makes about 2 dozen.
