A crunchy almond crust is topped with a creamy almond butter filling and topped with sweet chocolate layer. A perfectly cool treat that is so easy to make.
Lazy days and eating lots of sweets. That would be a more precise description of my past couple weeks. After a big break from healthy-ish food and work out, I had to take care of my myself, inside out. It happens once in a while, to be lazy and just read books, eat sweets, watch movies and getting a tiny bit obsessed with cleaning. I know it’s kind of weird to be lazy and be obsessed with cleaning, but when you live with a little kid, you have to! 
After putting my life back together, and while I was craving for sweets, I came up with this easy to make, yet scrumptious recipe made with Barney Butter almond butter Honey+flax, packed with flavor and nutrients, it will make you eat the whole pan up and have no regrets!
Crunchy and nutty base, smooth almond butter filling with floral and fruity notes from the orange and chocolate topping to take it to a whole other level. This is the real deal!
