raw mint chocolate slices Hi Everyone! I wanted to share a fun refreshing summer treat with you today. These are my raw mint chocolate slices. They are no-bake, vegan, gluten-free, and refined sugar free. These mint chocolate slices make the perfect snack or dessert. These bars are loaded with a cooling minty filling, in between a chocolatey raw brownie base, and velvety chocolate topping. You can even serve up these bars frozen if your looking for something with a bit more of a ice-cream texture.

    This was my first time trying a raw dessert and it was way easier than I thought. The mint flavor wasn’t too strong and the texture was spot on. Will definitely try this one again.
