Directions
1. Combine dry ingredients—coconut, chocolate chips, oatmeal—in a large bowl. Add the honey and peanut butter and mix well until you get a thick, sticky mixture. You can add a little more oatmeal if it’s too gooey.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Put the oatmeal mixture on the parchment, flatten with a spatula, a spoon, or a rolling pin to get an even thickness. Form a square or a rectangle by straightening the edges with the spatula.
3. Cut to the desired size, then put in the refrigerator (or freezer) for an hour or so to make the bars solidify. Once refrigerated, the bars will be less sticky and separate easily.

Made this tonight! I am not a fan of peanut butter or milk chocolate, so I made the recipe with vanilla almond butter and dark chocolate. It was so so so good! Feel like I found a new staple snack :)
