Ingredients

Cookie Dough

1½ cups almond flour
¾ cup nut butter I use almond butter but any creamy nut butter will work beautifully
⅓ cup honey or maple syrup
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate chips or chunks can use dark chocolate, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate

Chocolate Topping

1½ cup dark chocolate chips can use semi-sweet or milk chocolate if preferred
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Optional (but REALLY recommended): salt flakes

Instructions

In a large bowl stir together the almond flour, nut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla, and chocolate chips or chunks. Spread in a single layer in a parchment paper lined 8 x 8 baking dish.
Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil until smooth in a bowl in the microwave or in a small pot on the stovetop. (If doing on the stovetop use low heat and stir frequently. Remove from heat as soon as it's smooth so you don't burn the chocolate.)
Pour melted chocolate over the cookie dough. Use a spatula to spread it out so it's in an even layer. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes. (Can omit but it adds so much flavor so I recommend not skipping this step!)
Place in the refrigerator or freezer until chocolate is firm, 15 to 25 minutes.
Let it sit out for just a few minutes if it's very firm before slicing, warm your knife under warm water, and slice carefully to avoid cracks in your chocolate layer! Store uneaten bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
