Recipe Directions

1. To form the crust, process almonds, dates, cocoa powder, and salt in food processor. Press into glass pan.

2. To form the caramel layer, process almond butter, agave, and coconut butter in food processor until smooth. Spread on top of crust layer.

3. Top immediately with dried shredded coconut and cacao nibs, pressing them into the caramel layer so they stick. I pressed mine into a square 8×8 inch glass dish, so I would get uniform, square, bite-sized brownies.

4. Freeze until ready for serving.

This is a truly delicious, fun, easy dessert that looks like you’ve been in the kitchen for hours!

I’ve been trying to replicate the Dream Bars I grew up on as a kid and this takes the cake, or brownie, I should say!

I’ve made this recipe like 10 times now. It’s my hubby's favorite. Enjoy!

I always get confused over the soaked nuts measurements in recipes. 2 cups of almonds after they are soaked or 2 cups before they are soaked?

Coconut butter is from the whole coconut. Alissa Cohen sells it and I believe Natural Zing does too. It's amazing in dessert frostings, and you don't need that much of it to really benefit from its taste.
