Some treats I bake are healthier than others. This is one of those treats that is healthier for your soul than your body and in my opinion, those are the best kind!

These are dairy free if you use dairy free chocolate chips (Enjoy Life brand are my favorite) and can be made gluten free if you use gluten free oats and marshmallows.

These bars have 3 layers- a cookie layer, a chocolate layer, and a toasted marshmallow layer with some added goodness on top to really bring it home 🙂

In other words, they ROCK! My trusty taste testers loved them, I loved them, and you’ll love them!

Here’s how to make them:

First, you will make your cookie layer. This is the part where you will use the almond pulp that you have left over from my almond milk recipe. If you don’t have almond pulp, no worries! Just use the same amount of almond flour and it will still turn out great. When I bake, I usually only use one bowl instead of combining all the dry ingredients then all the wet ingredients separately. I know in some cases it’s necessary but for this recipe, we’re just throwing it all in one bowl and calling it a day!

To a bowl you will add the oats, almond pulp, coconut flour, salt, beaten eggs, vanilla, coconut sugar, milk, and baking powder. Stir it until combined.

In a well-greased 8×8 baking dish, add the batter, pressing it down into a thin layer with your fingers. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Right after taking it out of the oven, while it’s still hot, sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. After the heat of the cookie layer melts the chocolate, spread it into a thin layer, covering all of the cookie.

Next, turn on your broiler. While it’s warming up and while the cookie layer and chocolate are still hot, you will sprinkle the marshmallows on top of the chocolate. Place the dish on the middle rack of your oven, under the broiler. Don’t walk away! This takes less than a minute so you will want to stand there and watch to make sure you don’t burn the marshmallows. Once they are toasted, take them out of the oven and sprinkle with a few tablespoons of mini chocolate chips and crumbled up graham crackers. The link to my homemade graham crackers is here.

You will want them to cool before cutting. But if you absolutely can’t wait (speaking from experience), you can cut them while they are warm if you don’t mind getting a little messy.
