In a large bowl, combine:

2 c QUICK COOKING oats (not rolled oats)

1 1/4 c Rice Krispy cereal

Set aside.

In a small pot melt:

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 c peanut butter

Stir on low until it begins to simmer. Simmer for 1 minute.

Remove from heat.

Add:

1 tsp vanilla

Stir everything together until well coated.

Coat a 13×9 pan with cooking spray.

Pack mixture into pan. Press down firmly or it will fall apart.

Refrigerate 10 minutes.

Melt 7 ounces chocolate bark (I use the microwave).

Spread over almost granola.

Refrigerate until chocolate layer is set.

Cut into 12-14 bars. Keep refrigerated.

NOTES: May store at room temp, but refrigerate in warm weather. They freeze well.
