Butterfinger Bars

Yields: 16 Bars

Ingredients:

·       1/2 cup + 1 tbsp. coconut oil, melted

·       3/4 cup peanut butter

·       1 1/2 cups coconut sugar

·       2 1/2 tsp vanilla

·       2 1/2 cups quick oats (use gluten free if desired)

·       3/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions:

1.     In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of melted coconut oil with the peanut butter, coconut sugar and vanilla until smooth

2.     Stir in the oats and mix until well combined

3.     Line a 9x9 with parchment paper and press the mixture into it. I used the back of a flat spatula to really press it in really well. This will help it hold together

4.     Place the 9x9 in the freezer to set

5.     Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over low heat, melt together the chocolate chips and the 1 tbsp. of coconut oil, stirring until smooth

6.     Remove the 9x9 from the freezer and using your spoon, drizzle the chocolate over top in any pattern you wish

7.     Return the 9x9 to the freezer for an hour to set

8.     Cut into squares and store covered in the fridge or freezer
