    I'm always nice.  I wouldn't do that to you.  Here, I'll copy and paste the recipe.

     

    Raw Almond Joy Bars

    First Layer:

    1. Whisk all ingredients together and pour into oiled 8 x 8-inch glass pan. Set in refrigerator aside making topping. The bottom layer should be set up (but not completely hard) before adding the next layer.

    Second Layer

    • 2 cups of dried, unsweetened, raw coconut
    • 2/3 cup coconut butter, softened
    • 3 tablespoons raw agave nectar (or liquid sweetener of choice)
    • 1-2 teaspoons organic almond flavoring (not raw)

    1. Place coconut in medium bowl.

    2. Whisk coconut butter (not the same as coconut oil), agave and almond flavor. Pour over coconut and mix well.

    3. Pat over first layer, top with chopped almonds and ganache. (see below)

    4. Refrigerate to set.

    Third Layer

    1/3 cup almonds, coarsely chopped

     

    Ganache:

    • 1/2 cup cacao powder
    • 1/2 cup agave
    • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

    1. Whisk all ingredients together.

        +1.  I just murdered a Krackle bar.  Fortunately it was a little one.  I'm a sucker for chocolate.

          Dude, I so miss reese cups, kit kats and twix bars!  More than that though, I miss the innocence of youth when you could eat all of that stuff and didn't care about anything!

           

          Shit, on Halloween and Easter, we ate chocolate all day long!

           

          Ah, the good old days...then you woke up an overweight adult and realized all that chocolate came home to roost lol!

                It's possible the outcome is the same.
