Chocolate Cheesecake Granola Recipe
"My chocolate cheesecake granola recipe is going to be your new favorite thing! Make a batch of this for breakfast or a snack anytime of the day. I love it mixed with vanilla yogurt but you can definitely just eat it by the handful. The secret to this recipe is this new spread I found from Jif. I found it near the peanut butter at my local store. It is where we get that chocolate cheesecake taste with minimal effort!"
