Homemade Larabars – With Different Flavor Ideas

So… I made them!
http://munchingmadness.blogspot.com/2009/11/sweets.html

AMAZING!!

Thank you Katie!!

I did it! I finally made Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Babies!! Outside of my silly mistake about the wrong dates (that’s all the store had!), they were absolutely delicious!! Thanks Katie! I blogged about them and sent everyone here for your great recipe!

Is it possible to make one of your dessert “babies” (fudge, pb, pumpkin, etc) nut-free? What would happen if the nuts were omitted? Would you just leave them out, or would you replace them with something else?

I just made Kentucky Derby Pie babies! Derby pie is a pecan or walnut pie with bourbon and chocolate chips–so I made babies with 80g dates, 30g pecans, about 15g vegan semisweet chocolate chips and a splash of bourbon vanilla extract. Yum. Highly recommneded.

the mounds bar baby sounds delicious!

the choco chip cookie dough babies sound so yummy! id love to make some =)

I would love to make snickerdoodle fudge babies the most, but really I want to try ALL of them!

You can’t go wrong with Peanut Butter Cups! The first non-fudge baby would be some kabocha ice cream HEAB style!!

the chocolate fudge babies sound the best! I would love to have the Vitamix for green smoothies and banana soft serve (choosing raw website)…thanks for the opportunity!

The first thing I would make with the Vitamix would either be smoothies or soup! I love butternut squash soup….mmm

i would definitely make the chocolate chip cookie dough babies first…then some nut butters…then soup…the list is endless with the vitamix!

mounds bar baby, for sure.

The Peanut Butter sound to die for. I think I would die for just about anything that had peanut butter on it actually….

PB cup babies!!

The chocolate chip cookie dough babies sound wonderful! I think even my husband would eat them!! I’ve been coveting a Vitamix for ages – I would start with the yummy salad dressings from my Everyday Raw book I just got for xmas, followed by lots of soups and then Green Monsters for my kids and I in the morning. No end to the fun…or the possibilities.

well, FIRST, i would make a green monster 🙂 but then i would make the chocolate chip cookie dough babies!!!

I would first make some vegan ice cream, just because I used to be an ice cream freak before I cut out dairy. Then I would try out the chocolate chip dough babies. I have been eyeing those for a while.

The hot cocoa babies look and sound insanely delicious.. can’t wait to try!!

I think the pumpkin ones sound deeeeeee-lish!

I didnt even have to read the whole list before I decided on peanut butter!

The first thing I would make in my Vitamix blender is creamy butternut squash soup!

Ohhhh…definitely the pumpkin pie babies. And the first thing I’d make in my VitaMix would be nutbutter!

If I had a Vitamix, I would definitely make some version of Deb’s OMG OMG OMG butter!!!

They all sound good! The first thing I’d make would be a big green smoothie.

PB Cup babies for sure! Anything with PB is a sure thing. In fact, I’d make homemade PB first with a Vitamix.

Katie, thanks so much for this giveaway! The tiramisu fudge babies sound absolutely decadent!! If I had a Vitamix, I’d make some southwestern tortilla and corn soup. (The heating function of the Vitamix sounds so helpful!)

Definitely the macaroon babies sound the yummiest to me! If I win the vitamix, first I will try to make ice cream in it. Mmmm! 🙂

Chocolate chip cookie dough because…well, what beats chocolate chip cookie dough?!

I’m going to make the chocolate chip cookie dough babies and then some almond butter…that is if I win:)

I make chocolate fudge babies all the time. They are now a staple in my diet! I think I need to try the peanut butter cup ones, though. The first thing I would make with the Vitamix is a smoothie with a whole apple in it and kale, too because my blender cannot handle that at all. We really want a Vitamix, but it’s not in our budget right now!

macaroon babies look delicious! i would make these first in the vitamix 😀

The flavor that sounds best to me is the Hot Cocoa Baby flavor! I make fudge babies all the time in my old hand me down food processor and absolutely love them! I have shared them with many people, including my professors who all love them! If I had a Vita-mix I would make tons of peachy-green ice cream, smoothies and vegan soups! Thanks for the opportunity Katie aka Ms. CCK!

the peanut butter cup babies are definitely the best! The first thing that I would make would be a green monster. I make them in my current blender, but it takes so long because I constantly have to mix it around with a spoon (dangerous)! That would be for breakfast, and then I’d make almond butter to have with lunch, butternut squash soup for dinner, and lots of peanut butter babies for dessert. I’ve been wanting a vita-mix for so long, thank you so much for this opportunity, Katie!

The flavors that I’d want to make first would be the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Snickerdoodles. My two favorite cookies 🙂 Thanks for such a great giveaway, I’ve heard such wonderful things about the Vita-Mix, I’ve been wanting to make frozen banana “ice cream” for the longest time!

mounds first, thern snickers, then gingermen:)

Chocolate fudge would be great (along with all the other ones!) I have been dying for a vita-mix!!

I would first make a chocolate avocado pudding and then a nut butter probably walnut!

Mounds bar fudge babies, please! I think making them in the VitaMix would be AWESOME.

The first thing I would make in my new Vita-mix would be a pumpkin pie smoothie!!!

Mmmm! Chocolate fudge yumminess! I think I would try the ice cream as my first recipe for the Vitamix:)

I would make raw ice cream from frozen bananas first! It’s not much, but I’ve always wanted to try it and have never had anything remotely powerful enough to handle it.

I would make the Mounds Bar baby and then some yummy protein ice cream…. neither works with my current equipment.

pumpkin pie babies!!!

i love the deliciously simple cashew cookie flavor ;(

If I had a Vita-Mix, I’d make the frozen banana “ice-cream” that I’ve seen all over the blogs this year!

The first thing i would make in a Vita-Mix would be the peanut butter cup babies!!! yum!

Nothing beats peanut butter cup, so that would be the first baby I’d make.

gingerbread for sure!!! 😀

If I had a vitamix I woudl make Raw Chocolate cookie dough balls, and ots of non-dairy Ice cream. I have wanted one for YEARS after my sister showed me all the cool things she can make with hers. As a gluten-free, dairy-free,
sugar-free marathon mom it would be very handy….:)

I would make the cashew cookie larabar babies. Sounds so yummy!

I just like the plain ole chocoalate fudge babies! pure and delicious 🙂

I would make a green smoothie first. Just to test drive it. 😉

Peanut Butter Cup, without a doubt!!

ETA:

First thing to make in the Vitamix would be a green smoothie. I’ve never had one and I don’t trust my blender enough to get through it

First thing I’d do with a vitamix would definitely the raw gingerbread men! Although the classic fudge babies would be a close second!

I would make the macaroon babies first and then some protein ice cream!

The first thing I would make is the chocolate chip cookie fudge babies–they sound AMAZING!!!!

Definitely chocolate chip cookie dough babies! I would make those first in the vitamix. Then some awesome smoothies and soups a la HEAB and Gena from Choosing raw.

i’d definately make the pumpkin pie babies in the vita! mm :D*

I would have gone w/ the Peanut Butter cup babies but I really must choose the Mounds Bar Babies! It is definitely the Mounds Bar Babies!
Oh! But the firs thing I would make if I won the Vitamix would probably be Butternut Squash Soup! I just bought two and did so after making a Butternut Squash casserole. I needed two more to have on hand just so I didn’t have an excuse NOT to make a Butternut squash dish again. LOL If I keep them in the house, I must eat them! We love butternut squash!
LuvMoeDog2@ aol dot com

mmm, Tiramisu!

I am an old school person and definitely favor the chocolate fudge babies the most!

Would make pumpkin pie babies first. Yum yum.

Tiramisu fudge babies! These would definitely be the first thing I’d make if I had a Vitamix. Tiramisu was my all time favourite dessert pre-veganism, but I always ate way more than was good for me. Having a healthy vegan-friendly recipe for this awesome dessert is just what I need : )

My favourite fudge baby is the peanut butter cup variation. We have been making something similar for years and it never fails to satisfy the odd Reese’s craving. As for the Vita-Mix, the first thing I would make is a big batch of green smoothies! Mmmm…

My favorite baby is the pumpkin pie one – I am a fiend for all things pumpkin!!

They’re the 1st thing I would make in the Vita Mix (followed by the rest of the list!!) I do have a list of things I want to try if I ever get my hands on one, with Green Smoothies and ice cream and some original “I wonder if that would work” ideas as well

Thanks for the contest!

Mounds bar fudge babies, no question!

Peanut Butter Cup Babies! Anything with peanut butter is wonderful! The first thing I would make is the banana “ice cream” that’s been floating around in the blog world! I tried once in my blender, but the bananas killed it!

I would definitely make the raw gingerbread people! YUM! and I think I would make raw banana ice cream in the vitamix… I like eating frozen bananas, but the ice cream sounds so much creamier.

Raw Gingerbread People sounds the best to me becasue I love gingerbread!! However, if I was to win the Vitamix the first thing I made would be banana soft serve because I’ve been wanting to try it for since your first post about it!! YAY!!!

oh boy… a vita-mix would make me SUCH a happy girl 🙂
first, i’d make some deeeelish almond, cashew, and sunflower seed buttah.

then, once i have my nut butter fix taken care of, i’d get started on some snickerdoodle babies!

then, i’d probably NEVER come out of the kitchen because i’d be busy trying about every recipe i could get my hands on 🙂

I’d make the chocolate fudge babies! Or any of them. 🙂

For sure, the chocolate chip cookie dough and Pumpkin Pie babies. We all know they all would are heaven though:)

I’ve already made the chocolate fudge babies (and ate waaay too many!) so I’m dying to try the Peanut Butter Cup Babies. With a VitaMix I’d make banana “ice cream” all day, my poor magic bullet isn’t handling it so well!

I’ve made the pumpkin pie variety and have my eyes set on the peanut butter babies next…

I would run to the store and get the ingredients for the Mounds Bar babies and put them in my Vitamix!

Mmmmm…pb cup babies! Yummy! The first thing I would make in a Vita Mix would be hummus. My food processor just doesn’t cut it!

peanut butter cup babies sound absolutely divine! as for the first thing i would make in the vita-mix, it would definitely be soup!! i have a recipe for a tomato basil soup that i am just dying to try out!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Babies sound fab!! I desperately need a vita-mix since my bf might move out because his tolerance for my ghetto blender is deteriorating!

PS- would make a green smoothie!!

macaroon babies!

I would make the mounds bar babies with my new vitamix!

The first thing I would make would be a nut butter using Trader Joe’s honey roasted mixed nuts.

Thanks!
Jonna

Chocolate chip cookie dough babies! I’d love to eat some raw cookie dough without the salmonella fears!

And I think I’d make a green smoothie in my Vita mix first. I normally have one everyday and my cheapo blender is on its last leg!

I would make raw ice cream first and the mounds bar babies. YUM!

I would soo make chocolate peanut butter babies! yummm

I would use Blue Diamond’s Chili-Lime Almonds to make a creamy nut butter which I would then thin out to use as a dressing for all of my favorite veggies!

After that, I would make the original fudge babies (my fave of them all) for a yummy dessert!

DEeeE-lish!

I’d make the chocolate fudge babies! then some raw vegan ice cream.

These all sound incredible, but since I’m all about peanut butter, I would definitely make the Peanut Butter Cup babies ALL- THE-WAY. Then, of course, I’d use my handy dandy vitamix to make the banana ice cream that everyone is raving about in the bloggie world 🙂

chocoloate chip cookie dough sounds marvelous!!

peanut butter cup babies! and some of heabs protein ice cream!

Raw gingerbread! Not even a question 🙂

Chocolate chip cookie dough…mmmmmmmmmm. I would make soup of some kind…or maybe just a giant smoothie WITH ice (my current blender does not take kindly to ice :S )

I’d love to try the pumpkin babies!

definitely chocolate fudge babies 😀

You pretty much can’t go wrong with chocolate fudge.

The first thing I’d make is ice cream!

Oops! The above comment was me.

I would eat the peanut butter cups. The way they melt in a persons mouth–oh my god!!! Almost better than sex!!!

The first thing I would make in my Vitamix would be ice-cream! I’ve heard how good the ice-cream is. Strawberries, pineapples, blueberries all mixed in with ice. Then I would add some spinach because you need your greens for the day! Gotta get them in somehow :O)

Cashew Cookie Larabar Babies sound delicious!!!

macaroon babies absolutely…i don’t know why but i have been craving coconut like mad lately!

I love the spooky babies! Halloween is my favorite!

Mounds Bars, definitely!

Buttertart babies (a Canadian pastry for those of you who are unfamiliar!)

I would love to make the snickerdoodles or gingerbread. I love all those fall spices!

IM MAKING HOT CHOCOLATE FUDGE BABIES! And I’m adding red chili for a kick of spice!

The Peanut Butter Cup Fudge babies sound most excellent. I may add a banana to them though and call them ” A Big Hunk O’ Love” Fudge Babies.

If I had a Vitamix, gosh what wouldn’t I make?! Hummus, homemade nut butters, soup, SIAB, green smoothies, protein ice cream, raw apple crumble, etc. The possibilities are endless!

I would have to make the Tiramisu balls for my husband who is health conscious but loves Tiramisu 🙂

I would make the Hot Cocoa because they looked soooo rich and mouthwatering delicious!

I love the peanut butter fudge babies. I would love a mango smoothie from a Vitamix.

Thanks

I love the peanut butter fudge babies. I would love a mango smoothie from a Vitamix then a green smoothie.

Thanks

Well as you already know, I’m quite a fan of the original fudge babies and pretty much eat one every morning before me run (the perfect pre-run fuel). But I’m really excited to try the raw gingerbread people. I love gingerbread and this version sounds better than the traditional stuff!

Without question…tiramisu balls. 🙂

I would make the pumpkin pie babies!!!! I am obsessed with pumpkin still from fall time, I just cant get enough c:

I would have to say the Mounds babies…the combination of coconut and chocolate go so well together. Maybe I’d even add almonds and make them Almond Joy babies! 🙂

Oh and to follow up…I’d like to say the first thing I’d make would be some fancy recipe. But in all reality…it would probably be a smoothie. The ginger/pear smoothie from the Thrive Diet book is quite tasty!

Green juice!!! I have been wanting to try it forever but the only thing I have that’s close to a blender is a coffee grinder… haha. =/

I think chocolate fudge babies sound the most appealing, and if I received a Vita-mix, I would probably be practical and make a green smoothie first.

I would like to try the peanut butter cup babies!

I love the Peanut Butter Babies!!! Anything with peanut butter makes my life 🙂 The first thing I would make in the vitamix would be peanut butter ice creamy goodness!!…mmmmmmmmmmmmm

The Peanut Butter Cup Babies look pretty darn good!

Oh my GOD, peanut butter cup babies!

Ginger Babies!

Why aren’t real babies this delicious!?

If I won the Vitamix, I’d make Peanut Butter Cup Babies FIRST, then all the rest!!! 😀

Fudge babies!

Chocolate chip dough babies.

Peanut butter cup babies!!!

I would make tiramisu babies…sexy but with the word baby in it! Heads will implode!

Peanut butter cup babies, baby! MMM MMM MMM!

YUMMMM I would make the Raw Gingerbread People…nothings better then ginger cookies 😀 AND I think I would have to make up some sort of banana or coconut ice cream!!! Or some yummy soup!!

The first thing I would make would be a HUGE green smoothie full of spinach or kale, fruit and almond milk. After that, I would make some chocolate chip cookie balls. Honestly, though, I think I would spend the whole day using the vitamix to make everything I have been reading about on the many blogs I frequent!

I’d love love love to make the chocolate chip cookie dough fudge babies… they sound DIVINE! 🙂

I would make ice cream!!! Actually i would probably make ice cream every day; you know, just to test the theory that you can never have too much ice cream 🙂
But all of the other things that you can make with a VitaMix sound great as well (soup, fudge babies, almond milk, etc)

Pumpkin is one of my favorite seasonal foods. I’d try those babies first!

Peanut butter cup babies! oh my!

Mounds bar babies, oh yes!

Chocolate chip cookie dough!

the chocolate chip cookie dough babies sound the best to me, although admittedly they all sound pretty damn good 😉

pumpkin pie babies would be my fav, fo sho.. and I think I would try to make chocolate tofu pudding — since I’ve tried in my bullet-type blender and didn’t get a good mix. I eat those snak-pak puddings every day, and want to try to make a splenda-free version.

Wow, Katie these all sound so good. It’s hard to just pick one. I guess I would first try the cashew cookie larabar w/ the thin mint variation in my new vitamix.

I’m going to make the Hot Cocoa babies for sure!

Oh I would be makin’ protein ice cream in it first thing!!

I would absolutely make the hot cocoa fudge babies! Before I went vegan that was always my favorite drink on a frozen morning, and whenever I’ve made these before they always remind me of that.
As for the first thing I would make with a vitamix, I think I would make a blended salad. I’ve been dying to try Gena’s (Choosing Raw) Creamy Zucchini Soup but I’ve never been able to because I don’t have the right equipment! 🙂
The other thing I would make is chocolate avocado pudding. I’ve always mashed the avo with a fork, but I think it would be better if it were completely smooth….

I would go with the Macaroon Babies. MMMM. As for the first thing I would do with the vita-mix…the possibilities are endless. I would make some type of soup (Probably a Bisque type soup) or I would do some fantastic fruit ice cream!

I love me some cookie dough babies! For my VitaMix? I would make a nice bowl of banana soft serve!

Mmm, the first thing I’d make would be a “not-tella.”

I would start with the PBcups or the choc. chip cookie dough! Yum! I have been BEGGING my hubby for a Vitamix, but he keeps saying I have to wait. Story of my life…

The PB and chocolate babies is soo good. But the first thing I would make would be a creamy smooth soup.

It’s so hard to choose with so much goodness! But the macaroon babies! YUMMO!

Fudge Baby you should do is a turtle fudge baby. With peanuts, caramel flavor, chocolate flavor..like a turtle candy!

Tirimisu Fudge Babies sound the best to me! That dessert reminds me of our rehersal dinner for our wedding. 🙂

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Babies sounds delicious! I would probably make some raw banana ice cream in the Vita-Mix.

Mounds Fudge Baby – I’ve missed Mounds bars as a vegan! The first thing I’d make in a Vita-Mix is fresh almond milk – and then add cocoa, agave & vanilla to make hot chocolate.

The peanut butter cup babies sound delish! I’d also like to try my hand at homemade nut butters and ice cream!!

I’m all about cookie dough baby! Dying for a vita-mix!

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Babies first choice. They sound absolutely AMAZING! Tiramisu Babies are a close second.

The first thing I’d make in the Vita-Mix is probably a nutter butter or banana soft serve.

I love the peanut butter babies and have been interested in trying the chocolate chip cookie dough babies. It sounds delish.

The first thing I would make with the vitamix would be the warm soups that I have heard about like pumpkin pie in a bowl. I’ve been wanting a vita-mix for so long what a great giveaway!!!!

I’m a sucker for anything pumpkin pie – so that would be my fisrt choice, I would definately like Tiramisu Babies as well!

The first thing I would make in the Vita-Mix is peanut butter, we have a ton of frozen nuts that I would love to use.

I`m a sucker for peanut butter, so that is a definite fave!! tiramisu would be really fantastic too, I`m sure!!

I think the first thing I`d made in a Vita would be a nice blended soup, something with coconut and tomato or red pepper…yum!!

The first thing I’d make in a vitamix would probably be truffles. I can never seem to get smooth cashew cream and end up with crunchy truffles!

I think I messed up on my original entry from a few days ago because I don’t see it here…but, in any case, i would make the chocolate fudge babies in my new vita mix (fingers crossed).

I’d be interested in the chocolate fudge babies.

mm…I will have to try some of these. I think the first would be the chocolate fudge or the cashew cookie babies. yum.

The first thing I would make with a Vita mix would be almond milk.

mounds bar babies!! mmm!

MMM..the peanut butter babies look amazing! The first thing i would make in my Vita-Mix would definitely be nut butter!

Peanut Cup babies would be awesome!!

The 1st thing I would make in a vita mix would be raw vegan ice cream and then top it with chocolate!

pumpkin pie babies = heaven. as for the first thing i’d make with a brand-y new vita mix….well, i don’t think i could pick just one. i’d most probably sacrifice work and/or a social life and spend all day in the kitchen concocting things! 🙂

Pumpkin flavor!

Peanut Butter Cup—I love pb.

I think they all sound amazing! But Peanut butter cup or snickerdoodle babies would be awesome (especially if i could make them in a vita mix!)

everything looks phenomenal but i think i would have to first put the vita mix to use in making some lara bars, and the cashew cookie would be top of the list!

DEFINITELY cookie dough. mmmmmmm mmmmm

Most definitely the Peanut butter Cup. Yum!

Macaroon babies sound YUM and I would make a vegetable and fruit smoothie

cashew cookie babies? I’m IN!

I would love to try the fudge babies and maybe make my own granola. I have heard about the coveted vita mix through your blog, I can only dream of having one of my own.

I would make cashew cookie larabar babies.

I would make my kids the peanut butter cup babies (and maybe eat a few myself….)

I would love to make the chocolate chip cookie dough babies! Love the blog!

The peanut butter cup babies sounds delicious! The first thing I would make in the vitamix is an amazingly healthy smoothie.

totally mounds baby! Though I might have to add almonds to make it an “almond joy baby!”

chocolate mint fudge baby! i’d keep it simple with cocoa powder, but add some peppermint extract or peppermint torani syrup!

(OH i thought you wanted us to submit new flavor ideas–of these, i’d have to try chocolate chip cookie dough. foodgasm!)

Peanut butter babies sound amazing!

And…the first thing I’d make in a Vitamix is banana soft serve. I adore bananas!

YUM. macaroon babies? yes please!

mmm! i entered early on (or so I thought!) for the vitamix giveaway, but don’t think i ever commented on this page that it was the raw gingerbread babies i’d make!

… and i did make them! AMAZING! although no ginger men for me, just balls. one man’s enough!

anyway, i just want to make sure i don’t mess with the results.. my original comment was 1/16 at 9:45. will that be ok? or do i need to comment now that i’ve actually followed the directions (sigh. sorry!)?

This is for the vitamix contest! The fudge baby I’d try first is likely to be tiramisu, though, I’d have to through some vin santo in there, get pine nuts in somehow, and dip it in homemade white chocolate! Next, thyme glazed macadamia nuts with sweet preserved lemons to replace an old shortbread favorite. Then gingerbread babies with apricots, black forest fudge babies with cherries…and some saffron, orange blossom, pistachio, dried strawberries are definitely begging to be made into babies, somehow.

The first thing I’d make in my vitamix would be nut milk, to be fermented into a yogurt that I’d drain, add some other ingredients including bacteria to, and age, in hopes of advancing my nut-cheese creations! A vitamix would allow me to buy nuts in bulk and cut down on the cost of packaged almond milk, what a lifesaver that would be right now!

oh yum, peanut butter cup babies i would definitely make!
the first thing i would make is fresh juices…….mmmmm.

The raw cookie dough babies sound amazing to me!!! I used to go through way to much pre-packaged cookie dough when I was in highschool, before my health nut days. Although I think Pillsbury cookie dough is vegan?
The pumpkin pie ones also rock my world!

I would MOST DEFINITELY be making the pumpkin pie babies first….I could put pumpkin in everything and be happy for life 🙂

I would love to try the Mounds fudge baby! Thanks!

Truthfully, I’d try them all, but you can lose with peanut butter cup-anything!

I would make the Larabar Cashew cookie

Tiramisu babies are what I’d like

Macaroon babies for sure.

Yuuummmmmm! The chocolate chip cookie dough looks DIVINE! I’d follow those little yum yums with some cold tasty almond milk.

I would definitely make my own nut butter! Then probably blend up a frozen banana because I read about that somewhere that it turns out to be like a banana ice cream/sorbet type thing(: mmm…

The peanut butter cup babies look fantastic! I would definitely make those, then the tiramisu fudge babies.

Just made the fudge babies and OMGosh they’re so amazing!! My kids asked for seconds and we had to end up making another batch…thanks so much…cannot wait to try the other recipes:)

I would make the raw gingerbread recipe first with my Vitamix!

Oh goodness…those fudge babies look SO tasty!

The peanut butter cup babies!!! I would add banana to make them elvis babies for sure 🙂

i def. would make some banana butter along with some banana ice cream.. along with so many other things i’ve been dying to try!

I would make hummus! and lots and lots of soups with a vita-mix.

Peanut butter cup babies all the way!
But I would probably use the machine for margaritas……..

How to choose. The Peanut Butter Cup Babies sounds like a dream but Raw Gingerbread People appeal the my winter comfort craving! I would love a vitamix so I can make them all!

ooh, i want to try the peanut butter cup babies, i’ve already tried the date/walnut/chocolate combo. a vitamix would be great to make this in, my food processor is on on it’s last leg!

Yum! Mounds bar baby sounds great!

tirmisu babies sound best!
i’d make a healthy fruit/veggie shake.

Pumkin pie babies sure sound good. Would be making nut butter in that vita-mix.

I’d love to try making the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough recipe in a Vita-Mix.

what WOULDN’T i try to make with a vita-mix is more like it!!!!!
the top of the list would definitely be peanut butter cup babies, protein ice cream, and cookie dough bites!!!

mounds bar babies, no joke!

When will you post the snickerdoodle baby recipe?

Hey Katie! Your snickerdoodles are exactly as my cookie dough coins!:) cool!:) except I use figs not dates and coconut too, plus no salt!:) don’t ya just love these guys !?

I literally JUST made lemon-meringue babies (inspired by the lemon larabar which I LOVED…but mine are better! :P). As a fellow baby-maker, I know you’ll appreciate the happiness I’m floating on right now.

I’d like them to try and make a “cookies and cream” type lara bar XD

I think they should try making a mint choco chip larabar!

pumpkin pie flavored larabars would be bomb!!!!

i think the chocolate chip cookie dough!!!!!!!!!! definitely. actually anything chocolate!! but they all sound great! i will let you know. cuz eventually i will have to try them all. Thanks, for the recipes, that makes it easier for us to enjoy!

Oh Id love peanut butter babies

Id also love the chocolate chip cookie dough babies!

Tiramisu Babies!

I love the mounds bar babies!

i’d like to try snickerdoodle babies. i’ve never had snickerdoodle anything but it sounds delish!

Peanutbutter babies!!!!

hot cocoa babies for surE!

Chocolate Peanut Butter cup babies sound delicious!

The chocolate chip cookie dough sounds amazing too! Honestly, all of them do! I really wish I had a food processor in order to make these! I am a freshman in college right now and live in a dorm so even if I get a magic bullet or something for christmas I won’t be able to use it. Some day! Love you blog!!!!

Tiramisu babies, definitely! Merry Christmas, Katie 🙂

Mm, pumpkin pie babies! They sound so yummy and seasonal. 😀

Chocolate chip cookie dough! Nothing’s better than cookie dough 🙂

But of course chocolate peanut butter would be EQUALLY sinful. I’m indecisive! 🙂

Chocolate chip cookie dough babies!

Peanut butter cup babies!!!

The tiramisu babies sound great ! The first thing I would most likely make would be strawberry coconut ice cream.

I would make the “chocolate fudge babies”. Gotta’ love chocolate!
I would also make green smoothies every day. I have been a raw foodist for a couple of years, and due to not having a blender, have never actually made a green smoothie. You have no idea how much I want t Vita-Mix blender! It is my dream. Thank you for your consideration. I really hope I win, and I appreciate this opportunity.

I would make the S’mores Babies! Oh my yum!!! I also would really love to try the green recipes…. my family really needs to change our eating habits. If we are going to do this than I think with a positive attitude, drive and the right equipment we would be on a new healthy track !!!

Ok I want the Vita-mix so…I would love the snickerdoddle BEST today-but what a choice! The first thing I would make in my new vita-mix would be a green smoothie with spinach kale a banana mixed fruit and freshly juiced apple juice! yum! Pick me please pick me …I need to lose 70 lbs!!!!!

I have been wanting a vita mix for so long! I would make the pumpkin pie babies! My kids and I love pumpkin bread, but what a neat spin on the flavors!! The first thing I would make is fresh raspberry ice cream! (Then chicken tortilla soup… just sounds impossible, gotta know how it tastes!)

Hello! I got a food processor for my birthday and I finally got around to making some fudge babies- I made some mint ones with dates, cashews, cocoa powder and mint flavour. They are soooooooooo good- thanks so much for all your recipes! 🙂
(Pic of them here;http://runningcupcake.co.uk/2011/06/hello-my-name-is-maria-and-i-am-a-hoarder/)
🙂 Maria

I am absolutely in love with the Chocolate Chip Brownie Larabars. I was wondering if you have ever tried to make them? I really want to try to make them at home, but I haven’t seen a recipe for this particular flavor anywhere.

Thanks for the link, Katie! I am going to a family reunion next week in Colorado, and I wanted to make a huge assortment of different fudge baby flavors! I’m thinking some regular fudge, snickerdoodle, macaroon, chocolate mint, and peanut butter-a nice assortment!

I would love to!!!! Alas, it is a non-stop flight 🙁 But trust me, if I ever make it down there, you will be the first one I see!

they all sound delicious but if I have to narrow it down, it would be peanut butter cup, snickerdoodle, samoas. Thanks!!!

I subscribed for emails! I’d say tiramisu sounds wonderful.

I love the sound of the Cashew Cookie Larabars, as I love Larabars, but love even more the idea of making them myself. However, the FIRST thing I would make if I won a Vitamix would be my favorite morning shake: apple, blueberries, water, lemon juice, kale, spinach & cucumber. YUM!

The Tiramisu babies link isn’t working for me. Pretty please fix it? I LOVE Tiramisu and I think I might need that recipe 🙂

I love the sound of the raw Gingerbread recipe, I always loved those since I was a child!! Can’t wait to give them a go and try them….yum!!!

the peanut butter cookie dough larabars definitely sound the best to me!!! as for the first thing i would make in my vitamix blender, it would be a smoothie with: frozen mangos, goji berries, mint, spinach, lime juice and ginger juice. yum :)) there’s a nearby raw restaurant that makes a smoothie like this and while it is DELICIOUS, it is quite expensive. i’ve been eyeing the vitamix for awhile so i can start making my own smoothies!

What happened to the oatmeal raisin larabar recipe?? I get a 404 error!

I love you. seriously. thank you so much for your website!

my dear your a wonder a natural cookie i am a diabetic and these are more then awsome.
every week my friends get together for a game of MAHJONGG a chinese tile game. as a treat after
we eat lunch i gave it to them wowieeeee. thanks keep up the good work.

I just had a Lara bar for the first time today and I’ve been meaning to try some of the recipes but they just moved way up on my list of priorities lol!

Finally remembered to buy dates at the grocery store and made these last night. OMG! I’m completely addicted now. I tried a few variations and none of them disappointed (I also ended up using the entire package of dates). Here’s the variations I tried:
1/4 c Peanuts, 2/3 c dates, 2 tsp nutella
1/4 c peanuts, 2/3 c dates, 1-2 T dried cherries
1/4 c peanuts, 2/3 c dates, scant 1/8 tsp coconut extract
YUM, YUM, YUM!!!
I’m off to buy more dates!!

I made these and they wont stay together. any idea? Did I do something wrong?

Hi Katie, do u know fiber,carb, protein content of your oatmeal raisen larabar? For those of us counting weight watchers points, ( a lot of us follow you) we need fat, carb, fiber and protein. Would love it if u included that in all your recipes. Keep up the great work….I’m a big fan of your site, thanks

My 9 year old son just gave me a brilliant idea…mocha fudge babies! I only had enough dates to make a 1/2 recipe, so I had the dates, almonds, some vanilla, 1 tsp of instant coffee and 1 tsp of cocoa. SO delicious!

Someone asked if you could replace the nuts with anything… I use ground flaxseeds (you can get a big bag, as well as big bags of the nuts, from Costco). It helps dry it out a bit, as well is healthy for you. If you really want to be healthy, use cacao (raw chocolate) instead. It’s a bit more bitter (like dark chocolate), but great for you.

love larabars!! but can be expensive and last one i got in store was funny tasting maybe was longer on the shelf??
anyways what would the carbs and fiber content be? i noticed you have the bars all generalized for nutritional info but i dont think there would be a huge difference to what i am wondering- ww pts. lol
thanks

Do you recipes that are low sodium? I am on a low sodium diet, doctor’s orders.

Thanks

Have you ever tried making larabars with pistachios? Or did you ever have the pistachio larabars before they were discontinued? I just started my larabar addiction this year and I recently found out that back in 2009 or before they used to have pistachio larabars and chocolate-chili larabars. So sad that they were discontinued 🙁

Any opinions on chili-chocolate? I love crazy flavor combinations haha. For the longest time I was only trying out your fudge baby recipes but I recently tried your deep dish cookie pie and naughty girl fudge recipes and they are just as awesome, but no surprise there. Your blog is very inspiring.

Homemade Larabars are delicious! So easy and so tasty!!
Have you heard/tried a Cliff Bar? If so, have you ever thought about trying to make a homemade version of those?

I made some fudge-babies inspired by you the other night! Lots of dates, nuts, seeds, raisins and vanilla, blitzed into a dough.. and I got the idea to add a handful of crunchy cereal! Rolled into balls, into the freezer.. OMG. Chewy, crunchy amazingness! I had to share!
Thanks for the inspiration! ♥ xx

Have you done any experiments adding some protein to these? I understand the whole vegan thing, but I love the Rise protein bars because of their simple ingredients (almonds, whey protein and honey) And they pack 23 grams of protein per bar.
Could you add, maybe, some hemp protein powder? And if you did that, what would you include to make them not too dry?

Hi! I love these recipes! I got addicted to the fudge babies…. Now I’m into experimenting with different flavors. I just made cashew cookie with a few drops of lemon extract and it was AWESOME! Like a lemon cookie. I might try orange zest next.

Katie! I have to tell you about this AWESOME date product I found. It’s by a company called Ziyad. They are “Baking Dates” pitted and pressed. That’s all! No sugars or anything added. I used them in your pumpkin dip. Planning to make into Lara Bars. Already soft texture, no need to soak. I’m just thrilled. My local grocery store had them for 1.99 for a 13oz package, but just this week dropped the price to 1.19! I bought 10! I don’t know if it is always in stock or if just temporary. Was on special island shelfing unit with other products by this company like falafel mix and hummus and tahini. Didn’t know if you had heard of it, but i’m LOVING it! Just wanted to share my findings! Saw they have it on amazon, but shipping is twice the cost! That’s ridiculous!

I make the Samoa Lara bars weekly…they are absolutely the best. I firgured out the Weight Watchers Plus points to be 2.7 each. If you make a double batch and use approximately a 1/3 cup each bar or 50 grams each bar. Thanks for the recipe!!
