Health and fertility benefits of Picnic Bars Recipe

Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity. Walnuts are low on the glycemic index. What’s more, they also lower the glycemic index of other foods that you eat in conjunction with these nuts. Any kind of nuts provide a healthy source of fat and a great way to encourage PCOS weight loss.

Ingredients

1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
2 large eggs
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips, divided
1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and cocoa; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in eggs. Set aside 1-1/2 cups for topping.
Press remaining crumb mixture into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350 ° for 6-8 minutes or until set.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine milk and 1 cup of chocolate chips; cook and stir over low heat until melted. Carefully spread over crust. Combine reserved crumb mixture with nuts and remaining chips. Sprinkle over chocolate layer.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until top is set (chips will not look melted). Cool before cutting.
