Method
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, dark chocolate chips, vanilla extract, almond flour, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Dough mixture is smooth and uniform. Stir until the almond flour is fully moistened.
Line a shallow baking dish or mold with parchment paper. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and press it evenly with a spatula or your hands to form a uniform layer about 1‑2 cm thick.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Dough presses into an even layer. Use the parchment to keep the surface level.
Place a heat‑proof bowl over a pot of simmering water (or use a microwave) and melt the dark chocolate, stirring occasionally until fully smooth.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Chocolate melts smooth. Stir gently while it warms over the water.
Pour the melted dark chocolate over the pressed dough, spreading it with a spatula to completely coat the surface.
Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles and ensure an even chocolate layer.
Refrigerate or place the pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate has fully set and the bars are firm.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Chocolate layer is set and bars are firm. Chill until the slab cuts cleanly.
Remove the chilled slab from the pan, lift it using the parchment paper, and place it on a cutting board.
Using a sharp knife, slice the slab into 8 equal bars or desired portion sizes.
Serve immediately or store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
