Paleo Vegan Magic Cookie Bars

Paleo Vegan Magic Cookie Bars

These magic cookie bars are truly magical! They are bursting with so many flavors and textures. The shortbread layer provides a nice and sturdy base for all the toppings. This is then topped with a cream coconut layer, coconut flakes, pecans and dark chocolate chips. The end result is a little crunchy, a little creamy, and a little chocolaty. Truly the best combo! These magic cookie bars are rich and decadent enough that nobody will know they’re made with good for you ingredients. They’re Vegan and Paleo – but I promise you could fool anyone into thinking they’re the real deal!

Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups - almond flour
  • ⅓ cup - coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons - coconut flour
  • 6 tablespoons - maple syrup
  • ½ tsp - vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups - coconut cream
  • ¼ cup - maple syrup
  • 1 tsp - vanilla
  • ¾ cup - unsweetened coconut flakes
  • ⅔ cup - pecan halves
  • ¾ cup - dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add coconut cream, maple syrup and vanilla. Stir to combine. Bring to a light boil then reduce heat to low. Allow to simmer while you make and bake the shortbread layer. Keep a close eye to make sure it doesn’t burn. I like to stir mine every 30 seconds or so.
  3. To make the shortbread layer, combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Press mixture down into the parchment lined baking pan in an even layer. Bake for 17-18 minutes or until set in the middle and slightly golden around the edges.
  4. Once the shortbread layer has baked, pour coconut cream mixture on top. Sprinkle the coconut flakes, pecans and chocolate chips over everything.
  5. Bake for about 23-24 minutes or until middle is set.
  6. Allow to cool completely (several hours at room temperature or 1-2 hours in the fridge) before slicing into.
