Almond Joy Bark
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!
