"These are so delicious that since first making them, I've had to start keeping them around all the time - and since you store them in the freezer, it's super simple, and they won't get stale! I've even had to keep a tray at work to keep my team happy. :) I add white chocolate chunks and a handful of cinnamon chips to mine, instead of the raisins and chocolate."
