My sister-in-law sent me a text yesterday and said "you're gonna freak out, look what I found!" and boy was she right! We are granola bar freaks and this is right up our alley. Monica Matheny has this website where she shows all the work she has done to create the copycat Kind Bars. She has 8 different varieties and I have made all but 2 so far. They are all fabulous, so far my favorite is the Almond Coconut with the Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate coming in a close 2nd! Could have been my measuring, but I found the Apricot Almond and the Blueberry Pecan to be a little too sticky for my liking so next time I will measure a little heavier on the nuts. Like I said, could have been my initial measuring as these were the first two I made right out of the gate. She has done a superb job with her renditions and I urge you to visit her site and try these bad boys! Way to go Monica!
I wrap these in my trusty confectionery twisting wax paper that measures 4-1/2" x 5-1/2"and they fit perfectly! Then I wrap again in cellophane and pop them in the freezer. These freeze exceptionally well and I just pull them out the night before and throw them in our lunches the next day. Instant treat! How fun is that!
