Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter “Larabars”
I don’t know if your husband is anything like my husband, but if he could, he would bankrupt us with his love of the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Larabars. So an idea was born. I’m going to replicate that yummy recipe and make them (with love) for him to snack on whenever he wants (for a way better price)!
