  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>This &#8220;Pay Day Bar&#8221; is a wholesome version of the real thing using all natural ingredients.  I&#8217;ve added honey in this recipe to give it some more flavor and stickiness, but this can easily be omitted for a low-carb version.  Option: add my recipe for Chocolate Bark on top to make a Baby Ruth Bar.</p>]]>
