Oh this recipe makes me excited! These Dark Chocolate Wrapped Salted Caramel & Pecan Pie Bars are simply divine.
This is a sweet, decadent treat that will please everyone! It doesn’t matter if you are vegan or not this dessert is absolutely delicious.
The bottom layer is a blondie brownie crust. The center of these bars is a sweet and rich pecan pie filling with a thick salted caramel swirl. If that isn’t sinful enough these bars are then wrapped in dark chocolate.
Yes, I know. And yes, these bars are as good as they look. I would dare to say they taste better than what they look like.
This recipe is a wonderful way to share healthy treat options during the holiday season. Everyone will love them and be so surprised by their natural, whole food ingredients.
I highly recommend this recipe this holiday season.
This recipe is vegan, gluten free, dairy free, no bake, almost raw (can be completely raw), high fiber and made with only whole natural food ingredients.
