Dark Chocolate Raspberry Bars

Last week I started experimenting with these dark chocolate raspberry bars. One of my all time favorite recipes on the blog are my homemade plant-based Twix Bars. I love how easy and delicious the grain-free coconut flour crust is to make. As it turns out, it also pairs beautifully with raspberry jam and chocolate. 

They are not only incredibly tasty but also super healthy and easy to whip up. You only need a few main ingredients and an hour of your time to prepare them. Just the perfect edible gift for this lovely holiday. 

Dark Chocolate Raspberry BarsHow to 

Preheat the oven to 350F and line a 8×8 inch brownie pan with parchment paper. 

In a medium sized bowl add coconut flour, agave syrup, salt and coconut oil. Mix/knead well with your hands until dough forms. Use light agave syrup or maple to ensure a lighter colored crust. Make sure to knead out any coconut oil clumps. With your hands press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan and bake for about 8-10 minutes until edges begin to brown. Take out of the oven and let cool completely. This will take 10-15 minutes.

In the meantime prepare the raspberry berry filling. Add raspberries, blackberries, water, maple syrup and lemon juice in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for about 5 minuts until berries have broken down. Puree with a hand mixer or in a high speed blender and pour back into the saucepan.

Add 1 tsp of agar agar powder to the berry mixture and simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes while whisking constantly. Make sure to keep whisking to fully incorporate the agar powder. Remove from heat and let sit for about 5 minutes before pouring it onto the cookie base. Freeze for about 1-2 hours. It should set pretty quickly but make sure it’s frozen before cutting the squares. 

Meanwhile melt chocolate and coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat and set aside. Once the berry filling is completely frozen, cut into 16 squares. Dip each into melted chocolate and transfer onto a cooling rack or parchment paper lined baking sheet. Let sit until chocolate has hardened. Serve immediately and store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
