Instruction

  • Line a 9×9 pan with plastic wrap (like saran or glad) making sure wrap falls over edges slightly. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients and mix well.
  • Transfer mixture to 9×9 pan and press very firmly into pan. Tip: oil hands to prevent mixture from sticking to hands.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or freezer for at least 20 minutes.
  • After refrigerating, grab edges of the plastic wrap and remove bars from pan. Cut into 16 bars.
  • In a sauce pan on medium-low, melt the chocolate and coconut oil stirring continuously during the melting process. Drizzle bars with melted chocolate.
  • Store bars in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Bars hold together best when refrigerated.
