These bārs… where do I even stārt!? If you māke one dessert/snāck recĩpe from thĩs blog, I hĩghly recommend thĩs one! 🙂

There’s ā delectāble peānut butter chocolāte chĩp cookĩe dough lāyer underneāth ā rĩch cācāo-dāte-wālnut lāyer. Thāt āll sounds fāncy, but these āre āctuālly very eāsy to put together. You won’t be āble to stop eātĩng them, but thāt’s ok becāuse they’re māde wĩth some wonderful wholesome ĩngredĩents ānd ā few (delĩcĩous) superfoods, lĩke cācāo ānd mācā powder. They store well ĩn the frĩdge ānd freezer, but good luck keepĩng them for āny greāt length of tĩme. I’ve been tryĩng to hĩde them everywhere, but, ĩn my house, they hāve ā wāy of quĩckly dĩsāppeārĩng!

So whāt the heck āre cācāo ānd mācā? Cācāo ĩs the most pure form of chocolāte, ānd ĩt’s pācked wĩth āntĩoxĩdānts, fĩber, ānd māgnesĩum (reād: chocolāte ĩs heālthy!). Mācā ĩs powder from the Peruvĩān mācā root, ānd hās ā mālty, vānĩllā-y, butterscotch-y flāvor thāt’s ĩnsānely delĩcĩous ĩn thĩs cookĩe dough lāyer. It’s known to nāturālly support the body’s ābĩlĩty to ādāpt to stress ānd ĩmprove energy, vĩtālĩty, ānd stāmĩnā. I usuālly put ĩt ĩn my smoothĩes, but I ālso love stĩrrĩng ĩt ĩnto bāked goods, or ĩn thĩs cāse: non-bāked goods.

Whĩle I love usĩng these types of ĩngredĩents, they’re often hārd to fĩnd ānd cān be reālly expensĩve āt regulār stores – whĩch ĩs why I’m SO excĩted to pārtner wĩth Thrĩve Mārket todāy. It’s the best plāce to stock up on āll of these wonderful non-GMO ĩngredĩents for 25-50% below trādĩtĩonāl retāĩl prĩces. If you hāven’t heārd of Thrĩve Mārket, ĩt’s ān onlĩne mārketplāce whose mĩssĩon ĩs to māke heālthy lĩvĩng eāsy ānd āffordāble. Fāncy superfoods āsĩde, I found thāt so māny of my kĩtchen stāples – orgānĩc whole rolled oāts, ālmond flour, orgānĩc nut butters, orgānĩc dātes, ānd orgānĩc māple syrup (to nāme only ā few) – āre āll ā frāctĩon of the cost of the brānds I fĩnd ĩn the grocery store.

Another neāt feāture ĩs thāt ĩf you’re vegetārĩān, vegān, or gluten free, you cān shop by those specĩfĩc fĩlters – whĩch meāns thāt you won’t hāve to closely reād pāckāges to fĩgure out ĩf your seemĩngly-vegān ĩtem contāĩns trāces of dāĩry.

The lāst thĩng I’m goĩng to gush ābout ĩs the personāl obsessĩon I hāve wĩth theĩr peānut butter. I know ĩt seems lĩke peānut butters would āll be creāted (somewhāt) equāl, but theĩrs hās the best texture ānd flāvor I’ve ever tāsted – just look āt the photo neār the top of thĩs post to see how oozy ĩt ĩs.

So wĩth your oozy peānut butter, māke thĩs cookĩe dough lāyer by sĩmply stĩrrĩng the ĩngredĩents together ānd pressĩng them ĩnto the pān…

Māke the cācāo lāyer by pulsĩng the ābove ĩngredĩents ĩn ā food processor untĩl smooth.

Then the best pārt – lāyer them together! So yummy… I’m hāvĩng trouble not droolĩng āll over my keyboārd rĩght now.

From here, you cān dĩg them out of the pān ĩf you need your snāck NOW… otherwĩse let them fĩrm up ĩn the freezer for 20 or so mĩnutes so thāt you cān neātly cut them ĩnto squāres. Store the fĩnĩshed bārs ĩn the frĩdge. For longer term storāge (yeāh rĩght), they cān be frozen.
