Paleo Reese's Bars

Someone needs to come over and take these Paleo Reese's Bars away from me because they are freakin' dangerous. I can't stop sneaking a bite of them, and the addiction is real around here.

I'm not joking when I say that this healthier version of your favorite childhood treat is even better than the original. The soft chocolatey layer on top of sweetened almond butter on top of a sturdy almond flour crust… It's like heaven in one bite.

Indulge: 70+ Grain Free Desserts

I wish I can say this was my recipe, but I can't take credit for it. This is from the amazing paleo dessert cookbook, Indulge: 70+ Grain-Free Desserts, written by a fellow blogger Carol Lovett from Ditch the Wheat. When I looked through the book for the first time, I bookmarked several drool-worthy recipes to try, and I knew I HAD to try these Paleo Reese's Bars first as soon as I read the title.

Other recipes in this book include:Chocolate Marble Cake (I'll DEFINITELY be making that one), Flourless Brownies,Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cookies (um, yes please), Chocolate Ganache, Pecan Pie Truffles, and so much more.

I honestly couldn't recommend this cookbook enough if you are a treat lover who's looking for creative ways to enjoy desserts on a grain free diet.
