Recipe Notes

You can get creative with this recipe and make substitutions based on what you have on hand.  If you are vegan or dairy free substitute:

  • coconut butter for unsalted butter
  • Enjoy Life chocolate chips for regular chocolate chips
  • coconut shavings for the white chocolate chips

These bars are very rich and could be cut to serve 30 smaller bars if you'd like.
