CHOCOLATE STUFFED PALEO BLONDIES

Hold the phone.

Stop what you’re doing.

I need your undivided attention.

These Chocolate Stuffed Paleo Blondies are the real deal people. Paleo, vegan AND ready in 20 minutes. I am so in love with this dessert you have no idea! I mean…look at that ooey, gooey chocolatey almond butter center! Seriously, I die.

I thought I peaked when these Fudgy Paleo Brownies first came out of the oven and made their way into my mouth. Like seriously I didn’t think I could create a healthy dessert that tasted so {so} good again.  However, I knew I had a winner with these Chocolate Stuffed Paleo Blondies when my husband exclaimed, “Woah! You made normal cookies tonight!” I laughed and told him they were paleo blondies!  He said that he couldn’t even tell that they were healthy…like not even in the slightest!

These Paleo Blondies are legit (like too legit to quit…hey hey). They are chewy and gooey and stuffed with a healthy portion of Barney Butter’s Cocoa + Coconut Almond Butter! Seriously, just whip up the blondie batter and spread half of it into the pan. Take a bunch of this Cocoa + Coconut Almond Butter and slather it all over the bottom layer. Spread the rest of the blondie dough on top and you’re good to go. I love (like love SO much) that Barney Butter uses Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips to make their Cocoa + Coconut Flavor!  Even those of you with the strictest food allergies can enjoy it! 🙂

If you do not have access to Barney’s Cocoa + Coconut almond butter you absolutely can make your own chocolate filling! Mix together almond butter, coconut oil, cocoa powder and a touch of your favorite liquid sweetener and presto, you’ve made your own chocolate stuffing for these beauties!

Recipe Notes

• If you want to make regular blondies you can omit the chocolate filling! If you like thinner blondies, cut this recipe in half and bake for 10 minutes! *NOTE: Some people have reported that this recipe is turning out dry for them. If your batter looks dry...add more almond milk until you get the consistency of cookie dough! The batter should NOT be dry when these bars go into the oven!
