I get real generous with the vanilla and the cinnamon because I like them.

Also, last time I added a handful of chocolate chips And a hand full of coconut … just to empty a couple of bags….

Here is a hot tip!!!!!

If you have a food processor…. Go to Costco and buy whole (raw) Almonds … then slice them in the food processor….. about one forth the price of sliced almonds in the grocery store!!!

Also, buy the Craisins and Raisins at Costco…. Eat lots of samples while you are there!!!
