Hot Mama Notes - Mine are currently chilling in the frig, so I don't know cohesiveness yet, but they taste delicious. For my 1 cup of add-ins, I used approximately 1/2 c milk chocolate chips, and 1/2 c slivered Almonds. There are also a few heath bits thrown in. YUM! No wonder my taste test was so good!! All the chocolate chips melted, though. Update: These could never be used in hot weather (which we live in!!) as a bar. They are too melty, even just our of the Frig. But they do taste good, we just need to eat them with a spoon!
