These almond bars are to die for!!! easy no bake almond bars! 200 cal a bar 8g of protein and it taste like you are eating some chocolate pecan pie!!! :)

preparation:
  • First, if you have a food processor put dates in food processor until smooth but if you are like me and are still old school put dates in blender and plus as much as you can then take out and put them into a bowl, then mash them out with a fork untill smooth. 
  • Then, put nuts in blender or food processor until small pieces (you can make them as small as you want) then add nuts to dates and add remaining ingredients(not chocolate). 
  • Then, spread into flat square onto parchment paper or foil and put into freezer for about 15-20 min ( just until it is firm) 
  • melt chocolate in in microwave then spread on top of the almond bars. put back into the freezer for another 15 min then cut and serve!!! :)
