1 Bowl Vegan Cookie Bars
Lately I’ve been craving all things savory, but I knew it was time to feature a new dessert concept! No matter what they say, you can never have too many cookie recipes, especially when they are this easy!
Typically with cookies you have to beat butter and sugar together, make a flax egg and so on. Believe it or not, I dread breaking out the standing mixer and beating sugar, because it’s just more dishes you have to do at the end of the day. I love a seamless recipe that requires minimal dishes and steps, especially when it’s a dessert. That being said, you’ll find that most recipes via EDS have minimal ingredients and steps for an effortless recipe.
While I love a good cookie, bars are something different and they retain moisture so much longer than a cookie. Cookies dry out, crumble, bars are sturdy, and you can even make an ice cream sundae with them if you’re craving something more!
What’s fab about these bars, is everything! They are quick, easy, affordable, require no beating of butter and sugar, no flax eggs, are made with just a handful of ingredients, are buttery soft, perfect for any season, can easily be made in bulk, you can cut down the sugar, use stevia sweetened chocolate like I did, can be served with ice cream, and are great for entertaining!

About 15 years ago I would make vegan chocolate chip cookie bars and I lost the recipe, this seems like a close match, I’m so excited to make them again!
