Almond Joy Bark on sheet pan lined with parchment

Almond Joy Bark

Penny Kovacs
This Almond Joy Date Bark is my take on the viral date bark recipe that went around.  Almond Joys were my favorite candy when I was little so it made sense to try this healthier version!  They are refined sugar free and the perfect Paleo treat!  I used Medjool dates, Georgia Grinders cashew butter (because it's the best) and Hu sugar free chocolate for a guilt free and delicious snack.  Warning....they are addicting!
