VEGAN COCONUT CARAMEL

  • In a small bowl, mix together a ⅓ cup of pure maple syrup, 1 cup of shredded coconut, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ cup of cashew butter and a pinch of sea salt. Mix very well until you achieve a caramel like texture.
    Spread your coconut caramel on top of the short bread cookie crust.

DARK CHOCOLATE CARAMEL DRIZZLE

  • Finally, melt ¼ quarter cup of chopped dark chocolate and 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Make sure to stir every 30 seconds to prevent chocolate from burning to the bottom of your dish.
    Drizzle over the top of your coconut caramel. Place your samoa cookie bars in the freezer to set for about 15 minutes.
    Remove from the freezer, cut into bars and enjoy!
    I like to cut mine into 9 pieces, but you can cut into whatever size you like. Store covered in the fridge for up to two weeks!
