Healthy No Bake Cookie Dough Bars - Easy Vegan Dessert Idea

Prep Time: 20 minutes Course: Dessert Servings: 12 bars Author: Alma

These no bake cookie dough bars are a healthier twist on a classic favorite that somehow tastes completely indulgent. The base is soft and chewy, the chocolate layer is rich and smooth, and that light sprinkle of flaky sea salt ties everything together. It’s the kind of treat that disappears fast and immediately gets added to your repeat list.

Ingredients

Cookie Dough Layer:

• 1 ¼ cups almond flour
• ½ cup smooth almond butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
• A small pinch of salt
• ½ cup chocolate chips

Chocolate Topping:

• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 2 teaspoons coconut oil

Instructions

1. Add the almond flour, almond butter, vanilla, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and salt to a mixing bowl. Stir until a thick, smooth dough forms. Gently mix in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
2. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, then transfer the cookie dough mixture into the pan. Press it down firmly and evenly so the bars hold their shape once sliced. Place the pan in the freezer while you prepare the topping.
3. In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the chocolate chips together with the coconut oil, stirring until completely smooth. Remove the pan from the freezer and pour the melted chocolate over the cookie dough layer, spreading it into an even coating. Sprinkle lightly with flaky sea salt if desired.
4. Return the pan to the freezer and let it chill until the chocolate is fully set and firm. Once hardened, remove from the pan, slice into bars, and enjoy straight from the fridge or freezer.
