With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner, I was on the hunt for a healthy green treat. These bars remind me of the Girl Scout cookie, thin mints, except they are made with all natural ingredients!
Ingredients
Crust
1 ½ cups almond flour
½ cup cacao powder
½ tsp salt
1/3 cup coconut butter
1/3 cup warm water
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
Filling
1 ½ cup coconut cream, melted
1/2 cup almond butter
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 ½ tsp Spirulina (for the green color)
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp peppermint oil ( I use Doterra)
½ cup cocoa nibs (you can use chocolate chips)
Instructions
Line an 8”x 8” baking pan with wax paper
Combine crust ingredients, and mix well.
Transfer the crust dough to lined pan and press firmly making a level and even crust.
Now, mix all of the filling ingredients except chocolate chips/ cocoa nibs
Pour the filling over the crust, add chocolate chips/ cocoa nibs on top.
Place bars in freezer overnight.
Cut into squares.
Serve right out of the freezer.
ENJOY!
