1 cup + 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter (divided (or almond butter, for paleo)

1/3 cup maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil (melted, can also use ghee or butter (not vegan)

2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp sea salt

2 cups almond flour (oat flour also works)

1½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)

Instructions

Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, stir together 1 cup peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt until smooth.

Stir in almond flour until a thick mixture is formed.

Fold in 1/2 cup chocolate chips.

Press into the prepared baking pan in an even layer, and freeze while you prepare the chocolate layer.

In a microwave-safe bowl, add the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips and 2 tbsp of peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second increments until melted and smooth when stirred. You can also use a double boiler.

Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly. Freeze for 1 hour.

Remove from the freezer, then slice into 16 squares. You can run the knife under hot water before slicing for a cleaner cut. Store in the fridge or freezer.
