Homemade Chocolate Larabars. Everyone seems to love energy bars. They’re quick, easy and travel well. Store bought brands can cost over $1.50 a piece, so I have set out to make some homemade versions.
First I came up with a Clif Bar recipe, then a KIND bar and now homemade chocolate brownie larabars. This chocolate larabars recipe is just a first of several flavors to come.
These homemade larabars took only a few minutes to mix up. I think the taste was pretty spot on. I would store them in the fridge just to be sure they stay firm.
These should keep in the fridge for at least a week if not more. You can also freeze them!

Instructions

- Add in the cocoa powder and almonds and continue to pulse until a dough comes together.
