- 1/2 Teaspoon Sea Salt
Chocolate Coating
- 6 Ounces Vegan Dark Chocolate
Instructions
- Line the bottom and sides of an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper..

- Press the mixture into the prepared pan. Freeze for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the freezer and slice into 18 bars (thirds on one side and sixths on the other side).
- Melt the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl.
- Use a fork to coat each bar in chocolate. Place on a wire rack or parchment-lined baking sheet to drain. If desired, sprinkle with chopped peanuts and/or flaky sea salt. Let the bars set completely.
- Store in the fridge or freezer. Let the bars thaw at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating.
