Vegan Almond Joys

This DIY Chocolate Bar Recipe Recreates the Sweet at Home

— October 31, 2015 — Lifestyle
These vegan Almond Joy chocolate bar recipe is a great healthy alternative for foodies that are craving something sweet to snack on. This homemade version only requires five ingredients to make and each one is wholesome and good for the body.

Almond Joys are one of the most well-known chocolate bars opting for an unforgettable coconut taste and texture. These homemade versions are made in a food processor using dates, shredded coconut, roasted almonds and semi-sweet dairy-free chocolate. The dates and coconut are blended up and then the mixture is rolled into cylinders. Each piece has an extra almond pressed into it before being dipped into melted chocolate. When the candies are hard and set they taste just like the store-bought version with much less processed ingredients and a great taste.
