Gluten Free & Paleo Cookies/Bars

1/2 c. Coconut Sugar
3 T Cacao or Carob Powder
8 T. Coconut Oil
1/2 c. Coconut Milk
1/2 c. Cashew (or other) Nut Butter
1/8 tsp. Pink Salt
1 T. Vanilla Extract
1 c. Shredded Dried Coconut
1 c. Walnuts, chopped
1/2 c. Almonds, sliced
1/2 c. Pecans, chopped


In a saucepan, add the first seven ingredients and heat over low heat. Whisk ingredients until they turn into the consistency of a pudding. Stir in the four remaining ingredients.

To Make Cookies: Drop spoonfuls onto a wax lined cookie sheet and put into fridge until cookies solidify.

To Make Bars: Line a 9x13 lasagna pan with wax paper and pour the mixture in. Smooth out the top then pop in the fridge until solid.

* These have to be kept in the fridge due to the coconut oil melting. Otherwise, they are very yummy! ^_^
