[branjobu96]

Hi Amy, what's the song used in the video? It's really relaxing! :D

[amyblogschow]

@branjobu96 Hi there! The song is by Julian Bachlow and it's called "Stars in the Moonlight." You should watch my "Jasmine Tea Shaved Ice" snack video too for another song by Julian called "Desolate Place!"

[branjobu96]

@amyblogschow Thank you so much Amy, keep up the work! I now know how to make SnickerDoodles thanks to you. :')

[deebadestinyhope]

aww aww amy is the cutest thing alive :3

[katelmao]

absolutely love this snack but i can't really get hold of almond butter. they don't sell it where i live. >< could i use normal butter instead ? :)

Please reply. thankyouu!

[StupidlySimpleSnacks]

@katelmao hi there :) oh goodness, definitely do NOT use normal butter. If anything, you can use another NUT butter as an alternative. Nut butter is like almond butter, peanut butter, etc. Maybe try a very thick peanut butter? The thicker nut butter, the better. It helps to keep the whole thing stuck together. Hope this helps, and good luck!

[gozosa1980]

oh my yum.

[aprilz81]

Omg these are so simple!!! your username even says it. I cant way to make these for the summer! C: thanks amy, By the way i like your kitchen!

[LLroomtempJ]

[arlichar11]

[str8out]

Wow, you're so... sooo... OMG you're the kind of girl I'd marry. Let's get married, how's that? =D

[eatingperson]

@str8out +1

Whoever marries Amy is officially the luckiest man alive. Damn you, whoever you are!

[amyblogschow]

@str8out haha you are funny

[str8out]

@amyblogschow =( that's the nicest way to say "NO you &$^#*%!"

[amyblogschow]

@str8out nope it's my way of saying I am not ready to marry ANYONE yet :)

[TheSweetestVegan]

You made it so simple

[itsjustron88]

Wow looks extremely good snack bars are so convenient. This is perfect too not to hard not to easy :D ya I didn't know almond butter existed too.

[amyblogschow]

@itsjustron88 it's super delicious. Hope you'll give it a try!

[Cosmicalex13]

I was ready to start making it as soon as the video was over, but I dont have almond butter. I didnt know that even exist.

[amyblogschow]

@Cosmicalex13 you may use peanut butter. Just make sure it's the extra thick - chunky - kind. Or natural peanut butter. Almond butter is great because the taste is not as overwhelmingly nutty, like peanut butter :)

[Cosmicalex13]

@amyblogschow thanks for the tip. Im very adventuristic with flavors and new stuff. I defintly want to try the almond butter.

[eatingperson]

Chris Goo-le-bau? Shouldn't it be Gee-boe or Gil-boe?

[amyblogschow]

@eatingperson I hope I pronounced Chris' name correctly.

[eatingperson]

@amyblogschow I don't know for a fact, maybe he does pronounce it that way. I've certainly heard my share of crazy American pronunciations of originally-French last names.

[yianimal]

the measurement "little bit" appears to have changed between vanilla and cinnamon. thank you i will use this! i love foods that aren't bad for me and taste good. a rarity.

[amyblogschow]

@yianimal haha, "a little bit" is definitely subjective. I love cinnamon so want lots of it. You don't want too much vanilla though as that'll overwhelmed it :)

[edin2]

sorry but i had to point this out 1:36

[edin2]

awww, i pay attention to the stupidist things.

[amyblogschow]

@edin2 nut butter?

[edin2]

@amyblogschow sorry, it was a stupid guy thing. ;p

[ThaRookie1020]

i like how you take lil bites while making it. cuteness level to the max!

[amyblogschow]

@ThaRookie1020 it tastes so good! I had to snack in between.

[ReliableNow]

when i saw the "this is not the end" text I imagined it as something extremely epic like when you thwart a villain and they say that ;D

[amyblogschow]

@ReliableNow haha. maybe in the next episode :)

[awhcom]

awww so cute

[beatchef]

That looks great, I will definitely make these for packed lunches instead of buying expensive bars with lots of packaging. I bet Chris is happy his book took him to your kitchen, I'd be very happy :)

[amyblogschow]

@beatchef Chris is awesome and he inspired the snack! I tweaked the recipe a bit, but he is the reason why we even made snack bars :) hope you give it a try. Promise you won't regret it. It's so so super easy.

[mabcap]

That looked good little lady, you did a great job on the snack :).

[amyblogschow]

@mabcap why thank you Markos :)

[larryboi90]

lovely! =D

[jgordon707]

[amyblogschow]

@jgordon707 thanks! It tastes so good too!

[baffler27]

[amyblogschow]
