idle_wilder - choc chips are in short supply here too. People keep saying that it's 'getting back to normal' but I can't buy yeast or light soft brown sugar though one of my lovely neighbours got me some icing sugar the other day and I was happy to be able to get her glace cherries in return as she'd been unable to find any. I had to whizz the oats to make the flapjack as I could only buy jumbo ones. First world problems I know.

I do wish that baking wasn't my default distraction/self soothing activity especially when I'm doing it because I can't run.

EP I've essentially made naked bars before - as they label all their ingredients with percentages you can work out the proportions. Then blended everything up into a sticky mess in the food processor before pressing into a tray. But you could easily turn them into balls.. usually consisted of mainly dates with other dried fruit & nuts thrown in. You could also roll in desiccated coconut to stop them being sticky.
