• Honey
• Vanilla extract
• Quick-cooking oats
• Mini chocolate chips
• Mini m&ms

Variations for No Bake Monster Cookie Bars

• Swap the nut butter: if you can’t have peanut butter, use your favorite nut butter like almond and cashew butter
• Add an extract: my favorite is vanilla extract
• Use other mini chips: you can use mini pb chips, butterscotch, or white chocolate chips

Tips and Tricks

1. Use a microwave-safe bowl to melt the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. This will make it easier to combine the ingredients and will help prevent burning.
2. When stirring in the oats and chocolate chips, use a spatula to fold everything together gently. This will help ensure that everything is evenly distributed and prevent the ingredients from breaking or crumbling.
3. When pressing the mixture into the baking pan, make sure to press firmly to ensure that the bars will hold together. You can also use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed measuring cup to help press everything down evenly.
4. To make it easier to cut the bars into squares, use a sharp knife and make sure to clean it between each cut.
