The first time I made these i used cold margarine - and they didn't spread very easily so I dropped them into cookies. The second time I used room temp. margarine and they spread out like really thin cookies, so I made them into the bars and they spread easier this time. To be honest, I liked them better as cookies, so I'll just not use room temp margarine and make them into cookies. They are delicious though I love the amount of vanilla used and I also used white chocoalte chunks in place of raisins.

Great after school treat. I substituted 1 cube of butter with a banana and added sunflower seeds, flax seeds and chocolate chips. Very good.

This is an excellent recipe; I put granola bars in my hubby's lunch every day and I will add this one to my baking rotation! I tweak it; 1/2 cup butter and 3/4 cup ground flaxseed mixed with a little water. (Flaxseed easily replaces oil in baking recipes, adding fiber.) I skip the nuts and raisins, subbing chocolate chips.

I'd give this 10 stars if I could! I made one sub, my family hates raisins, so I omitted those and added 1/2 C of mini chocolate chips. These are beyond fabulous, and if I can stay out of them, will go to a baby shower tomorrow afternoon. Thanks evelyn, for such a tasy easy treat!
