A thick layer of vegan caramel is sandwiched between a chewy, chocolate-y crust and a decadent, melt-in-your-mouth layer of velvety dark chocolate. These raw, no-bake bars are the clean ingredient version of your favorite candy bar! The secret ingredient that makes these bars extra flavorful without refined sugars or processed sweeteners? We blended our very own Coco Cacao gr8nola into the crust layer, which gives these bars a superfood kick of raw cacao and coconut oil. This recipe is free of dairy and refined sugar so you can dig in without the guilt!
