Our daughters have been obsessed with Larabar Cinnamon Swirl Kid Bars lately. They’re good, but they can be costly. They’re pretty small, and a box of them doesn’t last more than a couple days in our house.
We decided to see if we could make something similar. Our first attempt was a success! They’re not exactly like the Larabars, but they are really good, and our girls love them. Read on to find out how to make this delicious treat.
