Notes on Cookie Bars

  • I have made the chocolate sauce by melting high quality chocolate or chocolate chips OR by mixing coconut oil and cacao powder. If you are looking for a more rich and sweet treat- the chocolate makes a thicker sauce.
  • Sometimes a do a combination of the coconut oil and cacao- along with a few pieces of chocolate thrown in. You decide what would be best based on you and your loved ones taste preferences!

  10. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of crumble over the top of the chocolate layer
  11. Place in the freezer to set for at least 2 hours
