Ingredients
 
 

For the sunbutter layer:

  • 2 cups cookie crumbs I used Enjoy Life Honey Vanilla Graham Crunchy Cookies
  • ½ cup vegan buttery spread
  • 1 ½ cups sunbutter
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar

For the chocolate layer:

Instructions
 

  • Place the cookies or graham crackers in the food processor. To get 2 cups, I used one box of Enjoy Life Crunchy Cookies plus 4 extra cookies. Depending on if you use the same cookies, or different ones, or graham crackers, this amount may vary.
  • Pulse until the cookies become fine crumbs.
  • Pour the crumbs into a bowl. Melt the vegan buttery spread in the microwave and add it to the cookie crumbs.
  • Add the sunbutter and powdered sugar and stir well.
  • Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper. Spread the sunbutter mixture out evenly in the pan, smoothing it with the back of a spoon.
  • Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl, and microwave on high for one minute. Stir, then microwave 15 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.
  • Add the sunbutter and vegan buttery spread to the chocolate chips and stir until smooth.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture onto the sunbutter layer and smooth it out.
  • Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  • Slice the bars with a very sharp knife. You can slice them in the pan, or use the parchment to remove the whole block from the pan and slice them on a cutting board.
  • These are very rich! I recommend slicing them small. Try 5 rows with 5 bars in each row.

Notes

Store these in the refrigerator - they should stay fresh for at least a week.
You could try freezing them. I think that would work, but I haven't tried it. If you freeze them, store in a ziploc freezer bag.
This makes a lot of bars, and they are rich! It's okay to cut this recipe in half if you prefer. If you do that, I recommend using an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
