Magical Chocolate Dragon Bars
These avocado chocolate dragon bars are a truly magical chocolate dessert.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mashed ripe avocado
- 1/2 cup coconut butter
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, honey, or agave
- pinch uncut stevia OR 2 additional tbsp each pure maple syrup and coconut butter
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/16 tsp salt
- 3 oz chocolate chips (see note below for substitution)
Instructions
- *If you’d prefer, you can omit the chocolate chips and instead combine equal parts maple syrup, cocoa powder, and melted coconut oil to make a chocolate sauce.Recipe: Line an 8-inch pan with parchment or wax. Blend all ingredients except chocolate in a food processor or blender until completely smooth. (See video for a visual of the recipe being made.) Smooth into the prepared pan. Carefully melt the chocolate so it does not burn. Smooth over the pan. Freeze. I take the pan out after 10 minutes to cut into bars before the chocolate hardens completely. Store bars in the freezer.View Nutrition Facts

Notes
If you have leftover avocado, make an Avocado Smoothie!

Is that equal parts by WEIGHT or equal parts by VOLUME? Yeah, it makes a difference. 😉
I love my digital scale… I write the weights down on each recipe ONCE, then I don’t have to fool around with getting measuring cups all messy with coconut oil and nut butters; I just hit the ZERO/TARE button and keep on rockin’! Mine isn’t sensitive enough to do sub-gram measurements, but oh well, it’s still easier than measuring.
These are my new favourite! Super easy, quick, and super delish. I’ve made this recipe about twice a week for the last month. I have an extra small food processor, so that helps when blending such a small amount. Also, I added a dash of peppermint extract (the real stuff) the last time and that really took it over the top! Mint-chocolate…. yum!
