Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8×8 in. square baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
Put every thing except the chocolate chips in a food processor and process on high until a smooth batter forms. (Side note: best thing about this stuff is that it’s vegan, totally eat some of it raw…delish!)
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bars comes out clean.
Let cool completely, cut into even squares, and enjoy!
Don’t forget a tall glass of almond milk goes amazingly well with these!
