Oh I am addicted to these squares! I recall loving these as a kid! I will eat these anytime of day. The kids eat these for breakfast some days too. I have been on a restricted food regime lately, including no cow milk, no sugar, no gluten. Guess what, these squares are all within guidelines…not sure the quantity I can consume in a day is within the ‘rules’ though! This one is so easy, I now have the recipe memorized:
1/2 cup organic butter
1/2 cup “milk” ( I have used unsweetened almond or hemp or rice milk)
1/4 cup water
1/3 cup raw cocoa
Melt all above ingredients in a pot on low/medium heat. Remove from element.
1/2 cup organic honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
2.5 – 3 cups oats (I get the organic GF ones) (Less if you like more chocolate-y!)
Stir the honey in until melted then pop in the other 2 ingredients.
You could add some peanut butter or almond butter. I have done this in the past but then it is not school-lunch friendly.
Smooth it all into an 8×8 glass dish with a lid and pop in the freezer. I think it tastes better straight out of the freezer and then it is out of sight, out of mind so I eat less!!
Tell me if your family likes this one!
