Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/3 cup brown sugar (or coconut sugar for a healthier option)

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup creamy almond butter (or substitute with peanut butter)

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey for a different flavor)

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (optional for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pan: Begin by lining an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper. Leave a bit of parchment hanging over the edges for easy removal later.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, brown sugar, and salt. Use a whisk to mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well blended.

      Add Wet Ingredients: Introduce the almond butter and maple syrup into the dry mixture. Pour in the vanilla extract. Using a spatula or your hands, mix until a thick dough emerges. If the dough seems dry, gradually add a teaspoon of water or almond milk until you reach a desired consistency.

        Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.

          Shape the Bars: Transfer the dough into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or your hands to press the mixture down firmly and evenly into the dish.

            Chill the Bars: Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap or foil. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the bars to firm up.

              Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle: If you're opting for the drizzle, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals and stirring in between until completely smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the chilled bars.

                Cut and Serve: After the bars are firm, lift them out of the dish using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares or bars. Serve immediately, and savor the delightful combination of flavors and textures!

                    - Presentation Tips: For an added touch, sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top before chilling, or serve the bars on a colorful platter garnished with a sprinkle of sea salt for contrast. Enjoy!
