Ingredients
- For the peanut butter layer:
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup powdered erythritol
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- For the chocolate topping:
- 3/4 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
- In a medium bowl, mix together peanut butter, almond flour, erythritol, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
- Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the pan and smooth the top.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Pour melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
- Lift the bars out using the parchment paper and cut into 12 squares.
Notes
- Use almond butter instead of peanut butter for a different flavor.
- Let the bars sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before slicing to prevent chocolate cracking.
- Top with chopped nuts or coconut flakes before chilling for extra texture.
- To make dairy-free, substitute coconut oil for butter in the base layer.
- Store in the fridge for best texture and firmness.
