Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus ¾ cup reserved)
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour*
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes (plus ¼ cup reserved)
- ½ cup sliced almonds (plus 2 tablespoons reserved)
- ⅓ cup brown rice flour
- 3 tablespoons tapioca starch
Steps
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8 or 9-inch square pan with foil and grease it very well with butter or baking spray.
-
Melt the butter in a large saucepan, over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add 1 cup chocolate chips and stir until they have melted. Remove from the heat, add the sugar and stir to combine.
-
Add the vanilla extract, the almond extract, and the eggs. Whisk or stir until smooth and shiny. Add the flour and salt and stir to combine. Stir in 1 cup coconut, 1/2 cup almonds, and 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
-
Spread the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan and then sprinkle the top with the remaining coconut, almonds, and chocolate chips.
-
Bake for 28-30 minutes, just until an inserted toothpick shows moist crumbs. Let the bars cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
