A Healthy Twist on Seven Layer Bars

Feb 8, 2017

Happy hump day! I’m excited to actually be back in the kitchen now that I have a bit more energy and was excited to whip up these bars last weekend for a Superbowl party over at Jess and Neal’s. I always like making desserts to take to people’s house because it’s not something I get to make often and can guarantee it won’t be sitting around my house for me to eat for the next few weeks. 

I am always a fan of coconut and chocolate but had been craving some caramel lately and thought these bars sounded amazing. We had stopped by Sweet Mandy B’s the day before so I could finally get myself an iced sugar cookie and Trevor decided on their Turtle Bar which inspired these. I always like to try and ‘lighten’ recipes if I can in little ways so the flavor is still there, but you feel a teeny tiny better eating them. It’s a mental thing, right? 

They were fairly quick to whip up and if you don’t have a blender to crush the graham crackers, I just found out you can buy them pre crushed, bonus! I think these would be perfect for Valentine’s Day if you are staying in or even to take to a party or work event. By the way, what is everyone doing for Valentine’s Day

    Delish! I’m definitely going to have to give this a try. I love the 7 layer bars- coconut and chocolate are two of my favorite things! I also recently learned that there is such a thing as coconut sweetened condensed milk, which I think might be interesting with this recipe. Thanks for sharing!

  2. YUM!!!! I want these again!
