In reply to Joey.

If I could superlike this comment, I would. As I can’t, however, I’m just going to settle for telling you that a) our hiking adventures are going to be amazing after this, b) on second thought, our hiking adventures were always amazing, and c) Did I mention that I’m not sending any of these to St. Louis? These were a teaser and bribery for you to come home. muahaha. On that note, I hope you don’t learn to make them too well yourself…

Wait, really? First time hiking? Well I hope you had fun, even without those granola bars 😛
Just wanted to add that these are also great indoors, in front of the computer, while watching tv, when you’re too lazy to make yourself lunch…
And yes, they travel great, even via USPS. Although I suppose I have no excuse not to start making them for myself now that I’ve found the recipe here.

In reply to Jackie. I hope you’ll get a chance to make these for them–I’m a total supporter of healthy lunchbox treats, and I’m sure you’ll have even more fun than I did playing with the recipe to suit their tastes!

In reply to Bob. Did I ever tell you I love your metaphors? I always leave hiking with a slightly high feeling...but then again, that might be the sugar from the bars. But I guess I could imagine feeling "stuffed" with the great views of a hike!

In reply to kitchenriffs. I find myself actually looking for excuses to go hiking now just so I can whip up a batch of these and munch on them all day while feeling moderately justified for doing so. They definitely tip the balance of hiking trips towards fun–hope you’ll get a chance to make them next time you go!

These look like excellent snacks, but also good lunchbox treats for my daughters!

These would make amazing half dome snacks. Defiently a must if you go, they will be life savers.
Light, high in protien tasty and a little suger to give you the kick you need to keep going.
Hiking is just like baking you put a lot of energy to make it to a great place or the finished good but you always over eat and feel stuffed aka getting back down from where you came from.

Hiking can be work! Good work, and fun – but still, work. And these little beauties are just the thing to keep you going when you’re on the go. I’ve never made them, but they look so easy – and flavorful. Good stuff – thanks.
