No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

I have had my neighbors kids over more lately, needed quick snacks for my kids, and looking for snacks for when on the run. These were a hit with everyone so far. I think I made like 18 bars. def better then money wasted with the kind in the box! even got to use my neighbors dads honey and my homemade vanilla.

No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

Ingredients
4 cups quick-cook oats (not rolled oats)
2 cups Rice Krispies
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup honey
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup peanut butter chips
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions
Line a 13×9 pan with parchment paper allowing it to hang over the edge of the pan for easy removal and cutting.  Or spray your pan with cooking spray.
Mix oats and rice cereal in a large bowl.  Set aside.
Melt butter, honey and brown sugar together over medium high heat until it comes to a bubble. Reduce the heat and add peanut butter.  Cook another 2 minutes or until peanut butter is completely melted. Add vanilla and stir.  Slowly pour over dry ingredients and mix well.  Add your peanut butter chips and sir them in. Peanut Butter chips will melt.
Spread the granola mixture into prepared pan and press down to compact it into the pan – you need to make sure they will stick together.
Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips and press down lightly.  Let cool completely until the chocolate chips are set back up before cutting into bars.  Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
