Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup chia seeds

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

½ cup maple syrup or agave nectar

⅓ cup almond butter (or any nut/seed butter of your choice)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon sea salt

½ cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

¼ cup shredded coconut (optional, for added texture)

Optional toppings: crushed nuts or extra chocolate drizzle

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Baking Dish: Take an 8-inch square baking pan and line it with parchment paper, allowing some excess paper to hang over the edges. This will help with easy removal of the slices later.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the rolled oats, chia seeds, unsweetened cocoa powder, and sea salt. Stir them together thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are well integrated.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the maple syrup (or agave nectar), almond butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is completely smooth and cohesive.

        Mix Everything Together: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of the dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, mix everything together until combined— the batter should be thick and slightly sticky.

          Add Optional Ingredients: If you choose to use them, gently fold in the dark chocolate chips and shredded coconut to the thick batter, distributing them evenly throughout.

            Press the Mixture: Transfer the combined mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use the spatula or your clean hands to press the mixture down firmly and evenly, making sure it is well compacted.

              Chill: Place the baking pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour. This step is crucial for allowing the slices to firm up before cutting.

                Slice and Serve: Once the mixture is well set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Position them on a cutting board and slice into desired rectangles or squares.

                  Optional Toppings: For a decadent touch, drizzle the sliced bars with melted chocolate or sprinkle with crushed nuts before serving.

                    Enjoy: Serve the Choco-Chia Bliss Slices chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where they will remain fresh for up to a week.
