To be honest, these raw chocolate caramel slice bars were kind of life changing. Life changing as in, I can say these are the best raw bars I have ever made. Life changing as in, we ate the whole pan in three days, and only because I forced us to make them last that long. Life changing as in, obviously, now I had to share them. These raw chocolate caramel slice bars are decadent, rich, and indulgent. They're also pretty healthy and sweetened naturally. The bars are mostly made of nuts, dates, cacao, maple syrup, and oats! Maybe that makes it okay to eat the entire pan in three days. You've gotta try making these raw chocolate caramels slice bars at least once. Though after that you might not be able to stop!

How to Prepare Raw Chocolate Caramel Bar [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
To Make the Base:
- Add all ingredients to a food processor and pulse until a dough forms. If it is too sticky, add some extra oats.
- Once ready, press base into a 9×9-inch square pan and place in the refrigerator to harden.
To Make the Caramel:
- Place all the caramel ingredients in a processor bowl and pulse until a smooth caramel forms. Scrape often, and add additional water if necessary to create a smooth, spreadable consistency.
- Once caramel is smooth and well-blended, spread evenly on top of almond base and return to the refrigerator.
To Make the Chocolate:
- In a saucepan, over medium heat, add coconut oil, cacao, and maple syrup, and whisk constantly until smooth and melted.
- Pour over caramel layer, smoothing gently to create an even coat, and return to the refrigerator.
To Assemble:
- Leave in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until all layers have hardened and chocolate is smooth.
- Remove and slice into squares. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
These are phenomenal! So delicious and the dates really do pass as \’caramel\’. Will be making these again!
