You don't have to tell anyone these are homemade, healthy (gulp!) granola bars.

Just let your guests enjoy the chewiness of the oats and dense chocolate flavor from the highest-quality dark chocolate you can find.

  • 2 tablespoons milled flaxseed

  • 1/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips or bittersweet baking bar broken into small chunks
