Update: I have started making my own chocolate. So the *( ) are showing what I now use to make this recipe. These can also be made in mini silicone cups. I purchased a set of 3 from amazon for under $20.,use them a lot. (See photo below.)

- 2 cups oats or oat bran
- 10 oz. chocolate chips (sweetened with stevia) *(omit)
- 2 oz. Lindt 95% chocolate *(3/4 cup cocoa powder)
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 2/3 cup Date Puree *(1 cup date puree)
- 1/2 cup coconut oil *(1 1/4 cups coconut oil)
- 1 tsp. sea salt (optional but yummy)
Place all ingredients, except oats and salt, in a medium size pan and melt together over medium heat stirring often. Once melted remove from heat and stir in oats and salt. Pour into a 9 x 9 parchment lined pan. ( a silicon pan works very well for this and it does not need to be lined) Refrigerate until firm and cut into bars.
ENJOY☺
