Recipe- Healthy And Sweet No Bake Snack Bars

These no bake snack bars are one of the best bar recipes you will make! Sweet, chewy, and wholesome bars are chock full of cocoa, peanut butter, and sweet chewy dates. These snack bars taste a whole lot like a peanut butter cup and my kids love them! You can’t beat how easy, healthy, and simple they are. And bonus: they also store great! I love them for an after school snack, and they also make a perfect lunch box treat.

Ingredients

2 cups dates, pitted
3/4 cup cashews
1/4 cup peanut butter, all-natural
1/2 cup coconut flakes
2 tablespoon cocoa powder, unsweetened
1/8 teaspoon salt

Method

- Toss everything into a food processor and process until the mixture starts to go smooth and clump into a ball.

- The dates will be all chopped up but you’ll still have bits of nut.

- Turn the mixture out into an 8 or 9 inch square dish lined with parchment paper.

- Use your hands to firmly press the mixture into the bottom of the dish. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

- Remove the bars from the pan and cut into pieces using a sharp knife.

- Enjoy these bars cold or frozen. Store in an air-tight container in the fridge or freezer.
