A no-bake chocolate sunbutter slice, free of all the top 8 allergens, perfect for any occasion and so yummy!
I originally posted this chocolate sunbutter recipe as part of my excitement for winning a prize from Enjoy Life Foods through random draw (see here). But I’ve made it a number of times since and it is just awesome, so I had to share it in its own page. This is one of those recipes that I just have to take into work to share. And it’s also the recipe where I constantly get asked when I’m going to make them again.
A no-bake chocolate sunbutter slice, that takes care of all of the top 8 allergens (i.e. avoiding them). For those of you who don’t know what the top 8 are: wheat/gluten, dairy, peanuts, tree nuts, egg, soy, fish and shellfish. I received the cookies and some mini chocolate chips in my prize package (thank you!), and to be honest, I just couldn’t stop eating them. That’s why I cut them into really small pieces. But that just means I can eat more!
