Recipe - No-Bake Granola Bars

2 One half cup Rice krispies
2 cup Quick cooking oats
One half cup Raisins
One half cup Light corn syrup
One half cup Brown sugar; packed
One half cup Peanut butter
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
One half cup Chocolate chips (optional)

Here is a recipe for granola bars. I skip the chocolate chips myself.

Combine cereal, oats and raisins in a large bowl. In a small saucepan,
heat the corn syrup and brown sugar to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove
from heat. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract and blend until
smooth. Pour this over the cereal mixture and mix well. Add chocolate
chips (optional) and mix thoroughly. Press into an ungreased 13 by 9 inch
baking dish. Cool. Cut into bars.

Note: Any type of unsweetened cereal may be used in place of rice cereal
(but both my mother and I considered the version she made with Cheerios
inferior to the Rice Krispies version. Dad disagrees :). The chocolate
chips may be omitted, if desired.
