Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1 cup medjool dates, pitted

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup melted coconut oil

1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup dairy-free dark chocolate chips (optional)

2 tablespoons coconut milk or cream

Optional: Crushed peppermint candies for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a food processor, combine the almond flour, pitted medjool dates, unsweetened cocoa powder, pure maple syrup, melted coconut oil, peppermint extract, and sea salt. Pulse the mixture until it forms a crumbly texture that holds together when pressed between your fingers.

    Set the Base: Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later. Firmly press the chocolate mixture into the bottom of the pan, ensuring it's even and compact. Use a spatula or your hands to smooth the top surface. Place the dish in the refrigerator to firm up, about 30 minutes, while you prepare the chocolate topping.

      Make the Chocolate Topping: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut milk. Stir gently until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

        Assemble the Bars: Once the base is set, pour the melted chocolate topping over it. Use a spatula to spread the topping evenly across the surface. For a festive touch, sprinkle crushed peppermint candies over the chocolate layer, pressing them down lightly.

          Chill and Serve: Return the baking dish to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate topping is firmly set. Once ready, lift the bars out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares or rectangles.

            Enjoy: Store any leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy a delicious Minty Chocolate Bliss bar whenever the craving strikes!
