8 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips or roughly chopped couverture
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup light Karo Syrup
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter, any kind
6 cups granola, with or without raisins, low fat okay

Steps:

Bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Turn off the heat and add the chocolate. Set aside. (Do not stir at this time!) In another small saucepan, combine the Karo syrup and the sugar and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and stir constantly until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the fire and add the peanut butter and stir until melted. Pour over granola, stir to mix and press evenly into a greased 13"x9" glass pan. By now, the chocolate should be mostly melted in the heavy cream. Using a rubber spatula, stir the mixture until all the chocolate is melted. Pour evenly over the granola mixture and let set at room temperature. Cut into bars and serve.
