Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300 F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper on both sides making wings.
  • To a food processor, add the vegan butter, coconut sugar, flour and vanilla and pulse until pea-shape pieces of the butter appear in the flour mixture. Press into the loaf pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool fully.
  • Meanwhile, place the dates, maple and coconut cream in a sauce pot and simmer until bubbling. Transfer to the food processor and puree until very smooth. Layer on top of the cooled cookie layer and place in the freezer for 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave on 50% in 30 second intervals until smooth, stirring between each 30 seconds.
  • Using a greased knife, carefully remove the parchment from the sides of the bars and cut into 12 bars.
  • Prepare a baking sheet lined with a silpat.
  • Dip the bars into the chocolate until fully coated and place on the silpat. Refrigerate or freeze for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
