Chocolate Energy Bars Recipe
Chocolate Energy Bars

I based this recipe on Vector chocolate chip bars - which I like but are too full of processed sugars/palm oil/other gunk for my taste. These bars (for a portion of equal calories) have less sodium and saturated fat and more fibre and potassium. The sugars come from dried fruit instead of refined sugar and corn syrup. They don't have as much protein (about 2/3 of protein in Vector bars), and although they contain vitamins and minerals it's kind of hard to compare them.
