Survival Bar Recipe
Without any shame whatsoever, I copied this recipe from another website (NO, NOT ANOTHER FORUM.)
The bars are supposed to keep at least one year unrefrigerated.
1 ½ cups honey
1 ½ cups protein powder
1 cup non-instant, nonfat dry milk
1 cup wheat germ
1 cup quick-cooked oats
1 cup sesame seeds
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup smooth peanut butter
3 cups dried fruit, chopped
1 cup raisins
Boil honey to hard boil stage, 250 degrees on candy thermometer. Combine next 6 ingredients in large bowl; mix well. Mix slightly cooled honey and peanut butter together and add to dry ingredients. Add dried fruit and mix well with hands. Mold into 3-inch bars and bake at 275-300 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Do not overbake or bars will be crumbly. (Note: any dried fruit is good. You may also pat mixture into 13”x9”x2” pan sprayed with Pam and bake as directed. Cool and cut into bars.)
Helpful hint: Use kitchen scissors to cut fruit; much easier than chopping.
