Equipment

- Large bowl

- 8x8 inch baking dish

- Parchment paper

- Spatula

Notes

- You can use any type of nut or seed butter in this recipe. Almond butter is my favorite, but peanut butter and sunflower seed butter both work great.

- For a lower sugar option, you can use coconut sugar in place of the honey or maple syrup.

- If you don’t have dark chocolate chips, you can use any other type of chocolate chip, chopped chocolate, or even dried fruit.
