    No Bake Chocolate Almond Butter Squares for Some Good Sweet Treats

    2
    By Alisa Fleming on January 31, 2021 Dairy Free Desserts, Dairy-Free Recipes, Dairy-Free Snack Recipes

    These no bake chocolate almond butter squares are one of my favorite types of desserts. They’re healthy enough to enjoy midday as a snack, they use everyday dairy-free ingredients, and yet, they’re dense with both nutrition and flavor. The recipe is a sample from the dairy-free, gluten-free cookbook Some Good Sweet Treats by Jessica Mitton.

    No Bake Chocolate Almond Butter Squares for Some Good Sweet Treats

    Some Good Sweet Treats Cookbook by Jessica MittonJessica is a Culinary Nutrition Expert, an award-winning Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant, and a self-proclaimed cookie monster. “I love a cookie but I don’t sacrifice health or taste!” Which is why she created this good-for-you cookbook filled with sweet satisfaction. Some Good Sweet Treats is heavy on gluten-free oats and dairy-free fats, but light on refined ingredients. It’s filled with muffins, cakes, cookies, and decadent bites, like these no bake chocolate almond butter squares.

    These special sweets are rich with almond butter, coconut oil, and dairy-free chocolate, and gently sweetened with warm maple syrup. They’re dense, delicious, and fulfilling! They also freeze well, so you can make a batch, cut, and chill for whenever you deserve a square.

      Does this recipe really get that brown colour and a chocolatey flavour without any cocoa powder?
