Squares of chocolate-covered toffee are arranged on parchment paper, each piece topped with a sprinkle of sea salt. Some edges are uneven, and the surface appears slightly glossy and textured.

Almond Joy Bark

No ratings yet
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!
