Granola Cookie Bars
Peanut-butter granola pressed and baked, the lunchbox bar that pretends to be healthy. Crisp at the edges, chewy in the middle, with every bite loaded. Sandwich two with a scoop of ice cream for an instant dessert upgrade.

Chef's tip
Salt is the missing ingredient in most home desserts — a small pinch makes chocolate and caramel taste more like themselves.
