A twist on the classic cookie, shaped into a bar, these small-batch SunButter Cookie Bars are all flavour and none of the labour.
Basically these are thick chocolate chip cookies, loaded with sunflower butter. SunButter gives these cookies a rich, complex, nutty flavour and makes them safe for school snacks.
Sometimes I don't like making too much food, especially since my picky boys like variety. What can I say, they're spoiled with all the recipe testing that I get to do.
But in this case, sometimes less is more.
A serving of these SunButter Cookie Bars will keep you full for a substantial amount of time. This is due to the amount of protein in the sunflower seed butter.
Rich, nutty, and sweet with dark chocolate chips studded throughout the cookie bars... These are one of my kids favourite nut-free snacks.
It takes less than 1 hour to make these bars from start to finish and you've got a quick and delicious snack that you can pack for school or work.

This is great for those days when my husband doesn't want to help me finish a treat that I've made! Even better that they come in a cookie bar form!
