Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/4 cup maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup honey or agave syrup

1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, rolled oats, cocoa powder, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Mix well until you achieve a crumbly yet cohesive texture.

    Form the Base Layer: Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later. Press the chocolate base mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan, ensuring it's compact and smooth.

      Make Peanut Butter Swirl: In a small bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter with honey (or agave syrup) until smooth. Drizzle this mixture over the chocolate base. Use a knife or a toothpick to swirl the peanut butter into the chocolate layer, creating a marbled effect.

        Add Chocolate Chips (Optional): If using, sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips on top of the peanut butter swirl, pressing them in lightly for extra texture.

          Freeze the Bars: Cover the baking pan with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the freezer. Freeze for at least 2 hours or until solid.

            Cut and Serve: Once frozen, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Use a sharp knife to cut into squares or rectangles, as desired. Store the bars in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

              Enjoy Your Treat: Take out the bars just a few minutes before serving to soften slightly for the best texture. Enjoy the delicious combination of chocolate and peanut butter!
