I saw a recipe this weekend and decided to give it a try but wanted to substitute my own ingredients in place of what the original recipe recommended. I am not a fan of super-sweet foods and these bars deliver just the right amount of sugar to make them yummy but not overpowering.

The next time I make these I think I will experiment with drizzling some melted dark vegan chocolate on top!

ENJOY!
