Ingredients
  • 2 c. almonds
  • ½ c. flax meal
  • ½ c. shredded coconut, unsweetened
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ c. coconut oil
  • ½ c. almond butter
  • 9 - 10 large Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. almond extract
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • ½ to ¾ c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Place nuts, flax meal, coconut, and salt in food processor. Pulse until you have sizes ranging from the size of sand to the size of a pea.
  2. In a small saucepan melt the coconut oil over low heat. Add the dates, almond butter, vanilla and almond extracts, and honey. Stirring occasionally keep over heat until ingredients are combined and warm.
  3. Add the coconut oil mixture to the food processor and pulse until it all comes together.
  4. Press the mixture into an 8 x 8-inch pan (I lined mine with wax paper). Use the bottom on a glass is you need to in order to press in down tight so that they bars will be solid.
  5. Melt chocolate chips and spread over the bars. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until the bars cool and chocolate sets.
  6. Remove from refrigerator and cut into small squares.
