Healthy cookie dough bark is a quick, no-bake dessert perfect for cookie dough lovers seeking a vegan, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free treat. Made with almond flour, maple syrup, coconut oil, and cashew butter, this edible cookie dough is topped with a rich layer of melted chocolate and can be customized with various ingredient swaps.

Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 1 and 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter (or peanut butter)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips

Chocolate Topping

  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • Flaky sea salt, optional

Instructions

  1. Mix the cookie dough: In a bowl, combine almond flour, cashew butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the mixture is evenly combined. Then fold in the chocolate chips.
  2. Shape the bark base: Lay parchment paper on a cutting board or large plate. Transfer the cookie dough onto the parchment and use a silicone spatula or clean hands to firmly press and flatten it into about a 1/2-inch thick layer. Set aside.
  3. Melt the chocolate topping: Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a small bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
  4. Assemble the bark: Pour and spread the melted chocolate evenly over the cookie dough layer. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top if desired.
  5. Chill and serve: Place the cookie dough bark in the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Remove, chop into large chunks, and enjoy your healthy cookie dough bark.
