Chocolate Raspberry Granola

Chocolate Raspberry Granola delivers on everything delicious – deep dark chocolate flavor that is not too sweet with the brightness of freeze-dried raspberries.

I want you to close your eyes and imagine the aroma of chocolate raspberry granola baking slowing in your oven. The house filling with the smell of a big chocolate hug. Am I exaggerating? No way! If you don’t make this for any other reason, make it for the aroma that fills your house. Your family with love you for it.

I’ll let you in on two secrets about this granola. Shhhhhhh!

1. I attended a food blogger conference this year and they gave away bags of a chocolate strawberry granola. It was, hands-down, the best granola I’ve ever had – until now of course. The reason I made my own is when I tried to buy it online, I realized how expensive it was. So I thought – “I’ve got this” – and I do! Now, mine is “hands-down” the best!
2.  But here’s the big secret – if you are a friend of mine that usually gets gifts from me over the holidays, you can bet there will be a couple of bags of this delicious Chocolate Raspberry Granola in the basket! And if you’re not a friend that gets gifts from me, maybe this year you will.
