Notes
*Always buy raw or local honey. Honey isn't always just honey. They add things like high fructose corn syrup and have little or no pollen.
*Always buy organic peanut butter. Peanuts are highly sprayed with pesticides and grow in very hot climates and can contain molds.
*Always buy cacao not cocoa powder. Cocoa powder is depleted of the vitamins and minerals that makes cacao so healthy. To make the chocolate drizzle, I use this recipe.
