In a medium microwavable bowl, add the coconut oil. Microwave for about 30 seconds, or until melted.
Stir in the cocoa powder, almond butter, honey, salt and nuts until thoroughly combined. The mixture will be thick!
Transfer it to a piece of parchment paper (about 12”x6”), use your hands to form it into a square shape and place it on the bottom third of the parchment paper. Fold the parchment over the bar and press into a ½-¼ inch thick square. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt (if using). Fold it up into a cute little package. Place in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to solidify. Remove and slice.
Enjoy straight out of the freezer or let it sit out for 5-10 minutes for a chewier, less hard texture.
Notes
Substitutions
Use any nut or seed butter in place of the almond butter
To make vegan: use maple syrup instead of honey
Use any chopped toasted nut in place of almonds or skip the nuts all together
Storage
Store in the freezer for up to 3 months (yeah right!)
Leftovers + repurposing
You can eat these right out of the freezer, but I like them best after they’ve sat out for 10 minutes.
