The Perfect Gift!
Make sure your Valentine knows your new lifestyle! There was a time when my husband Craig would give me candy and boxes of chocolates for Valentine’s Day. He would even pick the strawberry candies out of the Bottle Caps for me and gave me a whole bag of them once! But now he does things to fill my love tank without the sugar! Like a big box of chocolate bars from The Good Chocolate!

- 1/4 cup powdered natural sweetener
- 1/4 teaspoon stevia glycerite
- 1 teaspoon raspberry extract
- 1 large egg
FILLING:
- 2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate chopped
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or unsweetened macadamia nut milk)
- 4 8-ounce packages cream cheese room temperature (or Kite Hill for dairy free)
- 1 1/2 cups powdered natural sweetener
- 1 1/2 teaspoons stevia glycerite
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

TOPPING:
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 bar The Good Chocolate chopped
- 2 tablespoons powdered natural sweetener (or 1/8 teaspoon stevia glycerite)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. CRUST: Melt the butter/oil with the chopped chocolate bar. Stir until the chocolate is melted. Add in the nut meal, natural sweetener, egg and extract. Press into the bottom of an 8 inch spring form pan with 3 inch sides.

Blend cream cheese, natural sweetener, and cocoa powder in processor until smooth. Blend in eggs 1 at a time. Mix in lukewarm chocolate. Then mix in the raspberry extract (I also chopped another The Good Chocolate bar and swirled that in also). Pour filling over crust. Bake for 60 minutes or until center is just set and just appears dry, about 1 hour. Cool 5 minutes. Run knife around sides of cake to loosen. Chill overnight.
- TOPPING: Stir cream and chocolate in a medium sized saucepan over low heat until smooth, add in the natural sweetener. Cool slightly.

Cover with foil and keep refrigerated.

“OK…I realize this might be a little premature but here goes…I laughed yesterday! That is one thing that I noticed and really missed…I never laughed! So sad! I don’t even have all my supplements yet…still waiting on one. Sleep is better…about to try two patches of melatonin you suggested.
I’m pleased with the changes I’m seeing! Thank you! Kaye”

I would love to win these bars! Have yet to try them…and would like my kids and hubby to try them too! I wantnto healthily my whole family in the new year!!
I would love to win these bars as I’ve never tried them. I currently love two of your recipes, cinnamon rolls and the Sub Rolls.
I would love to win a box of these bars! I’d especially like to try this cheesecake recipe. There are so many of your recipes that I enjoy, the most recent one I tried was your chocolate chip cookies. Thanks dsoo much for sharing your recipes with us! Merry Christmas!
I would love to win a box
Would LOVE to try these! 🙂 And I can’t pick just one healthified recipe. 😀 All of the ones I’ve tried have been delicious!
I would love to win a box…..you have my attention! hahah I love all of your healthified recipes but “HEALTHIFIED” BREAD is the recipe my family and I enjoy the most because it is so versatile and can be eaten with everything!
me me pick me!!!! (hand raised, jumping up and down)
I would love to win these…can’t seem to find them in Canada!! i am in love with your chocolate torte cake and chocolate chip cookies!!!
I would LOVE to win!! and I LOVE your cinnamon rolls too!
I would love to try them! I think my favorite is the bread, as bread has always been my downfall that I couldn’t give up.
bewitchedwicked (at) gmail.com
I’d love to win the ChocoPerfection Bars! I have to say that my favorite recipe is one the simplest ones you have….the Sub Bread one. I’ve tried many recipes and yours is the best.
I would love to win a box, please. Who knew you could make healthy hash browns using turnips? That is one of our favorites along with Cheddar Crackers. Thanks for all you do and Merry Christmas!
Love your healthy recipes- only second to your yoga classes at the Whole Food rooftop deck in the summer 🙂 Would LOVE to win the chocolate!
I would love to win a box of ChocoPerfection. Everything we’ve tried with them has been great. I think (so far) the biggest hit was the “cookie dough” cupcakes…they disappeared pretty quick! I think that cheesecake might be our dessert Christmas day now though…it looks fantastic.
Would love to be lucky enough to win the bars! So far, your spice cake recipe has been our favourite. My daughter’s birthday is in the fall so it’s perfect. We made it for the first time in October and have enjoyed it again twice since then! Sausage gravy and biscuits is always a hit, too.
I’ve never tried this. Winning would be a great way to try it.
I have never tried these or even heard of them. But I would love the chance to get to experience them for myself. Your pictures look amazing! Great review! I’m very new to switching over to no carb, low carb and no sugar so my recipes are limited. My newest things is making hot chocolate with swerve,almond milk, and cocoa.
Blessings,

Thank you so much for doing what you do. I think I’ve purchased all of your cookbooks now as I change my kitchen.
I would love to win!! We have many favorite recipes. I am constantly recommending you to friends, family and clients.
We LOVE Seafood Alfredo. The kids ask all the time for it.
I want to win the chocoperfection bars. My favorite recipes have been the Shamrock Shake and the nutella protien waffles.

Would love to win!!! Favorite is waffles! It will be so wonderful to serve healthy waffles for Christmas morning!!!!! Thank you!!!
I would love to win the chocolate bars!! I will put them to good use! I love your cookies, and your Mocha Chocolate Torte!!! But I think we are making the Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake for Christmas dinner. 🙂
I would so love to win these bars! I recently ordered the chocolate mint and almost couldn’t share them with my kids, they were so good. I think that’s what I loved most about them, is that, I COULD share them with my kids and not feel badly about it. That’s what I love about you and all of your recipes Maria. They make me feel good both physically and mentally. Knowing that I am nourishing myself and my family while still enjoying all of the foods that used to cause guilt and sometimes sickness. Keep up the great work. My favorite is the chocolate torte, but I’m dying to make the chocolate chip cookies for my boys. Have a very Merry Christmas, and the most healthy New Year…..
Congrats on your feature!! That recipe is SOOO on my list to make during the holidays!!
For the recipe: how much chocolate can I use instead of the chocoperfection bar? We don’t have those here. 3 oz or more? Thanks
Each ChocoPerfection bar is 1.8 ounces. 🙂
Thank you for answering the question before I even asked!!! (and to Alonewithme for asking it! :p )!
I would love to win these bars! They are so yummy , but kinda pricey and with baby #7 on the way I don’t buy them very often. One of our favorite Healthified recipes is your frozen snickers bars, and I am very addicted to your cereals!! Thank you for this chance to win!
Good morning Maria….Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year….
I would love to win the Chocoperfection bars….
My favorite Healthified recipe is the Blueberry Protein Bagels…
Thank you for all you do.
Terry Noey
Thanks foir the chance to win some Chocoperfection bars. They sound delicious!
I would love love to win these! Chocolate Cookie Dough Cupcakes! thanks for posting this and all your recipes!!!
I would love to win these bars and try “HEALTHIFIED” CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE…our favorite recipe would have to be toasted sub rolls,thanks for the great recipes!
I would love to win these bars and try the cheesecake since that is my husband and I’s favorite dessert and I will be making one Friday.
I’d love to win! I’m a bit skeptical of sweeteners like that, but all of your recipes look so amazing, I would love to give it a try. I have been using maple syrup and honey in small amounts, but I would love to cut sugar consumption even more. This cheesecake looks delish!

I would love to win the chocoperfection bars! We love the waffles and pumpkin donuts. Hoping to try the recipe using the pizelle maker for our Christmas cookies soon.
I would love to win! Your pumpkin bread pudding is awesome! Pumpkin never grows old 🙂
I would absolutely love to win these chocoperfection bars! I have been dying to try them but can’t afford to buy them. I love so many of your recipes but your tortillas is a staple for me.
Wow, this recipe is perfect! Just what I needed. I made your Peanut Butter cup cheesecake yesterday and combined a couple of your recipes with the updates. I can’t say enough good things about your recipes. Yesterday, I also received your new savory cookbook and made the tortillas. I’m practically ready to cry right now, because they are so very awesome! The dough WAS forgiving and the finished tortillas were soft and pliable! I’ve messed around with so many other recipes and have been so very disappointed, that YOUR recipe brings me to happy tears of JOY! Thank you Maria! Thank you Maria!
We would love to win. The biggests hits in our househould are the pumpkin pancakes and sub bread. What great alternatives! You are changing lives Maria!!
I would love to win this box of chocolates! I’ve been wanting to try them for a long time, but the price tag is a bit hefty. My favorite recipe is the zucchini muffins. That cheesecake looks absolutely delicious!
Michelle L. From Birmingham, AL would love a box of this chocolate 😉 I could use it in my favorite recipe to date: Cookie Dough Cupcakes. Thank you for all you do! You are a blessing! Truly!!
Love to win these bars! Too funny…I’ve been following her blog for a while and it made my day to see your post on there this weekend 🙂
I’d love to win these bars!!! My favorite low carb recipe is your chocolate donut recipe! I love it with a bit more cinnamon and in October, made them with my pal Jac in WI and we topped them with carb free chocolate ‘icing’ and bacon!! Delish!!! Thanks, Maria!
winner winner chicken dinner! I would love to win this box! I have purchased them before and I want everyone to know about these LIFE SAVERS! I think I would give them away to my friends so they can all fall in love with Chochoperfection! I am getting prepared for the Christmas cookie making and I plan to make Maria’s sugar cookies and PB & J cups (minus the jelly..) My holiday “indulgences”.
I would love to win these! I love your cheesecake!
I would love to win these!!!! I just recently bought 2 of your cookbooks and haven’t had a good chance to fully test out the recipes. Hopefully while the hubby is home over winter break he can watch the kids so I can play in the kitchen.
I LOVE your cheesecake recipes!! Would love to try these bars!!
Hi Maria! I LOVE your cinnamon bun recipe! Though I’ve tried a lot of your other recipes, that one will always be my favorite. I’d love to try these chocolate bars, too! 🙂
I would <3 to win a box of the candy bars! My favorite recipe so far is the HEALTHIFIED" ITALIAN PILLOW COOKIES" I LOVE them! Thank you for your website and all the great information and recipes! I have been low carbing since November 3 and have lost 25 pounds- only 20 more to go! I now eat healthy and have desert every night and I am still loosing!
Maira, you have no idea how I would love to win these bars..if I don’t win can you suggest how to get this flavor in the cheesecake without these! My favorite recipe is the cinnamon rolls but now that you have this recipe…it may become my fav!! Smiles, Ruth
Maria, let ME win a box of the chocolate bars 🙂 I have been using recipes from your blog since June, and this Christmas I’m getting a gifted bundle of all your cookbooks– color me JAZZED!! My favorite recipe of yours is your almond flour and psyllium husk powder “dough” recipe… I’ve used it to make bagels (everything bagels are my fave), donuts that are moist and chewy on the inside and a bit crunchy on the outside (vanilla cake with chocolate frosting, holla!!) and your monkey bread recipe will be making its grand premiere on Christmas Morning. Thank you SO MUCh for all your hard work and thoughtfulness, I can’t tell you what going grain-free has done for me. I’m 10 lbs away from my goal weight, and will be reintroducing exercise in the new year (25 lbs down since June!). Thank you thank you thank you, from the bottom of my healthy heart!
I have been dying to try these! I would love to have chocolate flavored without maltitol!
Merry Christmas Maria! I would love to win the chocolate bars. What a sweet gift that would be. 🙂 My family has so many favorite recipes it would be hard to choose. Currently we are loving the zucchini crisp and a stable for us has become your healing bread. It has really helped me to recover from some digestive issues and we continue to eat it weekly. Amazing! Cheryl
Oh my gosh, this looks so delicious and will be pinned so I can remember the recipe! Would love to win these so I can try making it. To be honest, I haven’t gotten to try any of your recipes yet 🙁 Thanks & Merry Christmas!!! Chanin
I would love to win! It sounds so yummy. Myself and my sister enjoy “healthified” donuts!
I just ordered the Chocoperfection Bars and 2 more of your books. It has been almost a year since I have been eating the “healthified” way. I’ve lost 25 lbs and maintaining. I need to add some new recipes to my diet so I know I will get that from the 2 new books. Would love to win the Bars and try the cheesecake. I have made a couple of cheesecakes from your cookbooks and love the crust on the Pumpkin cheesecake. Thanks Maria.
I’ve recently made the Italian Meatloaf and the family swooned! Ive since ordered several of your cookbooks and wait eagerly for the FEd Ex truck to pull in my driveway.The postings on the Chocoperfection bars have peaked my interest and I’d love those as well! …”Mama always said, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get.” Forest Gump
I’d love to win the bars! Your healthified Christmas Cookies were a hit around here. I froze one of the “logs” so I can have good-for-me cookies whenever the mood strikes. They slice easily straight from the freezer!
I would love to win the Chocoperfection bars! I just made your ‘Healthified Christmas Cookies’. Big hit with everyone. My husband says they taste just like pecan sandies. I will need to make more so that we have them for Christmas!
Thanks for all you do Maria!
I would love to win! It is hard to choose just one favorite recipe of yours, so I will choose your pumpkin recipes that helped me through Thanksgiving, because they were more recent – especially the pumpkin creamer, and the pumpkin puffs – but I love so many from the blog, and from my LCAF cookbooks!

Maria – I’m a long-time follower, first time writer. Since my wife and I embarked on a low-carb, grain-free and sugar-free dietary journey about a year ago and have experienced all of the health (and physique) benefits that go along with it, the only problem we ever encounter is choosing which of your tantalizing sweet treats we will attempt to re-create each weekend. You see, we are both so very indecisive. This is made more difficult by the fact that everything you post looks so damn good! Our process typically involves us flipping through our massive binder of all your recipes (I’m quite certain we’ve printed each and every one off of your website, and with full color pictures, despite office “rules” forbidding such use of workplace printers) and then each of us submitting a list of our three favorites. We do this early on in the week and narrow our choices as the week progresses before having a final “vote.” Though it changes regularly, I’d have to say our most recent favorite has been your Pumpkin swirl Cheesecake, not only because it was delectable but also because when we shared it with our sugar-burning relatives at Thanksgiving it opened their minds at least a bit to our way of eating.
Sorry this post is so long but it was way overdue. AND PLEASE ENTER ME INTO THE GIVEAWAY – We need these bars.
I would love to try these bars! We love the HEAlTHIFIED Chicken Noodle Soup:-)
I’d LOVE to win the chocolate! (who wouldn’t?) We love the pumpkin ice cream!
I would love, love, love to win this box of chocolates:) I have been searching for new things to that are healthy for myself and family. as a diabetic it was interesting to learn that your chocolate doesn’t affect insulin level. this would be a great gift for myself:) alright maybe I will share with the family:)
Chantelly78@hotmmail.com
I would love to win this box of great chocolates! My favorite recipe is your rhubarb crisp!
Glenda Zielski
I would love to try these out – I can not find them anywhere here 🙁 I have tried so many of your recipes and have loved them ALL! {Picking one is difficult!!
I want to win the bars! I love all of your recipies, but today we are making more protein waffles!
I live on a fixed income and can not afford to purchase the ChocoPerfection bars but I have heard that they are wonderful and would love to win a box. I also live alone so I can’t really say what my family’s favorite healthified recipe is, but I know I have trouble narrowing all your recipes down to just one that is my favorite. If I really had to choose, I would pick the Healthified Lemon Bars.
Maria, I’m a T1 diabetic who is a recovering carbaholic. I was at 160# on a 5’4″ frame, which for a runner was very hard to deal with! I could NOT lose the carbs. Well, I started losing weight and was very excited, except I didn’t know I was actually wasting away, as untreated diabetics will do! After I got diagnosed, I found your blog. It’s been so helpful because I can go to a party and turn down a HC treat, knowing I can make it later using your blog. I am hoping to get the LC Friends cookbook series for Christmas, and am saving up for your other cookbooks! Thanks for all you do! I hope I win the Choco Perfection bars, so I can eat them without taking (much) insulin! 🙂
I would love to win this. I’ve missed chocolate on my paleo/low carb/healthified lifestyle and this would be the perfect way to curb those cravings for something sweet and chocolatey without derailing my health efforts. I love your lemon bars and the doro wat was especially tasty; for the holidays, I definitely loved the pumpkin swirl cheesecake (back when I could eat cream cheese lol). happy holidays!
mmm chocolate raspberry. I would make the cheesecake of course. one of my all time fav desserts
Can i just tell you that we make a “treat” of yours usually about every week or until they last and both my husband and I are continuing to lose weight and are amazed at how good your recipes taste. The first recipe we enjoyed was the cinnamon rolls.
I gotta say I love the swerve product because we don’t have any tummy problems from it, just like it states…AND on your suggestion on the choco bars we now are faithful customers….sometimes I have eaten 2 in a day and still I am getting smaller and fitter each week!
Just yesterday I pulled out a bin of my stored away “small” jeans/pants/shorts…that I have not worn in over 5 years before I was pregnant with my now almost 4 year old…I literally shed a few tears of joy…almost all of them fit again. I know it’s vanity but it really made my day and all the hard work is paying off. I think I am even looking better than I was before because now I am faithfully lifting weights and see a dramatic change in the way my tops are fitting! ANYWAY
Sorry sooo long winded but just wanted to share that finding your site was a God-send for me because it has helped me stay on tract with my low carb, no grains lifestyle….and I can still have my cheesecake too! I sincerely Thank You!
Farrah Mayleigh Knight
I’d really love to win these bars — and I’m pretty sure that the recipe you posted for the Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake will be my favorite recipe. I just need the ChocoPerfection bars to try it out!
BTW, I linked to this page from Facebook, so why doesn’t the page automatically log my comment under that account? I lost one post because I didn’t notice it was set to “Google Account.”
After a severe reaction to steroids (for pain), I ended up in the hospital when my sugar skyrocketed to a very dangerous level. I was put on insulin and needed to make a huge difference in my eating lifestyle. Rather than fight it, I embraced the change. I researched for a new eating plan and found you and I am thrilled. Yesterday my doctor told me that I was only one out of maybe three people that she has seen make such an amazing turn-around. I have loved every recipe of yours that I have tried. Cauliflower is my new best friend, as well as zucchini. This cheesecake recipe looks and sounds fabulous and I can’t wait to try it. I love the ChocoPerfection Bars and would love to win a box. When I have a chocolate craving I only need one or two bites of a bar and it fills me up and mellows me out. Thanks for all you do for others. Sue Mazzucco
I would like to try these! yum yum!
I would like to try these! yum yum!
I would love to win these bars! I’ve been reading your blog and enjoying all the wonderful information you’ve provided. Can’t wait to sit and dive into your books once I have more time after Christmas. I’ve looked at several recipes and will be trying a couple in the coming days. Looking forward to baking some treats that my type 1 son can enjoy without sending his bloog sugars raging.
Good morning Maria, would love to win these bars so we can make your yummy recipes. My family(Ruben Pena) and daughter (Michelle Bailey) have been making your recipes for awhile now and i can’t tell you how much it has changed our eating habits. My favorite recipe so far has been the pumpkin muffins ,again thank you for all the information you have given us about food. Now its up to use to be more aware of what we eat. Bless you and your family. Roberta Pena
I would really like to win these bars… cacao powder only works so well.
I recently moved to a place at 7200 feet, and after trying my favorite of Maria’s recipes and having them overflow or take twice as long to bake, I finally realized that I needed to make elevation corrections! Duh. So now I have to go back and figure out what works! So saying, right now, my favorite recipe is really easy… It’s the Frankenberry Cereal. I use Jay Robb protein, which I discovered b/c of Maria, and I cut the sweetener way back. It’s an awesome substitute for carb laden grain based cereal!
Hey there! Would love to win a box of these so that I can split them up between my mom (a controlled diabetic), my sister (a newly diagnosed, yet to be controlled diabetic) and myself (no problems, but trying to avoid them). Generally, I’m the guinea pig, and I let the fam know what I like and don’t like so they experiment from there. I am always on a quest for things that will keep me on the healthy path. Thanks for sending over the crock pot recipes, by the way. That really saved my bacon! Score one for the corned beef and cabbage noodle casserole . . . .
There are so many great recipes. I think the newest one for me is the pumpkin muffins. I would love to try these choco bars.
I would love to win these! Our family loves your protein waffles. And yesterday my kids were saying that your cinnamon rolls looked really good and that we should make those soon. And I am dying to try this newest recipe!
Ooh, I’ve been making my own chocolate bars with cocoa, coconut oil and stevia with a little agave…it would be so nice to have something on hand. 🙂
Would love to try these on some of your dessert recipes! My favorite recipes so far are your pizza dough and sub bread recipes. Carol B (carolbonello@yahoo.com)
Winning these bars would be awesome! We just tried the cookie dough cupcakes and loved them!!! Thanks for another chance at a giveaway!
We enjoy so many of your recipes on a daily basis but the recipe we enjoy most often is the protein waffle. It is a great breakfast, snack, and sometimes dinner. We like both the recipe with coconut flour and almond flour. I would love these chocolate bars for my kids since we don’t eat regular candy anymore. My youngest doesn’t even know what the candy bars are at the grocery store checkout. It makes life so wonderful not to have tantrums at the checkout not to mention the wonderful changes in behavior that happen when you remove sugar from a child’s diet. I truly appreciate you and your work. Have a wonderful holiday. ( anitragarza2@yahoo.com )
Maria, Can I use 1/2 butter and 1/2 coconut oil in recipes that call for all coconut oil?? I am looking to lower costs…thanks,Ruth
Sure, that should work. 🙂
Thank you, smiles, Ruth
how much raspberry jelly is used in the recipe for this cheesecake?? thanks,Ruth
Daughter and I both love the chocolate bars so please enter us. The recipe of yours that we are both enjoying (and I bake it week after week) is the bread. The alomond flour or the coconut version, either one!
I would LOVE to win these bars & incorporate them into your recipes!!! I just received all three “Art of Healthy Eating” cookbooks and have two of your additional ones. I’ve only tried your pudding (using eggs), buffalo cauliflower, and homemade ranch, which were all amazing so far 🙂
(Carissa10_04@hotmail.com)
I would love to win! I am new to changing my life over to this new way of eating and cooking. These would definitely help with my baking challenges which I have no success with. Our favorite recipe is not a baked good as of yet lol. It was the lasagna with cabbage leaves and the eggplant with bacon on the side with eggs :).
We love many of your recipes, but we recently made the Spice Cake recipe in your Sweets cookbook. I made this for my wife’s birthday as an alternative to a standard birthday cake. It was unbelievably good and gives us confidence going forward that events like birthdays will be a breeze. Thanks for all you do!
This recipe looks amazing. I just recently found your blog/facebook page, so have not had a chance to try any of your recipes yet. I’ve pinned several that I want to try, including this one. Really enjoy the health information you provide with your recipes too. I tried Swerve on your recommendation and it is great. And, of course, I would really like to win the ChocoPerfection bars! Thank you. Terri (aka freckles)
I would love to win! this is the only chocolate I will give my kids and they love it! Our favorites are the pizza bites and protein waffles
I would love to win the ChocoPerfection bars. Our families favorite recipe is Maria’s healified Chocolate Chip Cookies…smell amazing when baking!
OMG … Maria’s super awesome Chocolate chip cookies 🙂 Pick Me ! 😉
And by the way, I would love to win the ChocoPerfection bars. I forgot to include that. And while I’m at it, the Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake recipe will be our new standard for Thanksgiving and Christmas. It is remarkable. Even our skeptical son really liked it. So put me down for the Spice Cake and the Pumpkin Swirl. Big fan of both!
Hi Maria, I thoroughly enjoyed the class I attended at your house last month. Since then I have made your Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake from one of the books I bought that night three times with great success! It is absolutely amazing! Now, I would LOVE to win the ChocoPerfection Bars so I could become addicted to this new recipe!!! Chocolate and Raspberry…How can you go wrong? nkmcnulty@comcast.net

Yum, I would love to win the bars! I haven’t tried it yet, but the “Healthified” Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake looks divine!
I’d love to win a box of ChocoPerfection bars! I love these bars because they are healthy! I purchased Low-Carbing Among Friends Vol. 1 last year, and I’m looking forward to looking through Vol. 2 – hubby got me for Christmas. I don’t have just one recipe to name, but your section in the cookbook is my favorite! ~Ella (I’m on Facebook and have posted on the Low-Carbing Among Friends facebook page)
I’ve been wanting to try the ChocoPerfection bars for ages, and would love to win! So far my favorite recipe is your waffles, but this Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake recipe looks amazing, and I will have to try it!

I’d really be delighted to win these. I’d use them to explore more of the chocolate yuminess that is in your books. At the moment, I always make sub bread, ice cream, cinnamon rolls, chai tea, pumpkin cheesecake and pizza bites.
This cheesecake looks so yummy!!! I want to win the bars and try it!!! I love the pizz-a-roni and the chocolate cake with peanut flour. I have a hard time finding peanut flour though.
Thank you Maria for a lovely giveaway. I would love to win the Choco Perfection bars. I adore chocolate and am going to try this delicious looking cheesecake. 2 of my favorite flavors together, chocolate and raspberry.
Chocolate raspberry cheesecake? Oh my…I think that’s going to become my new favorite healthified recipe! Sign me up for the contest please!
I would love to try these. I’m planning on making your chocolate chip cookies. They look amazing. So far, I have loved your pizza bites, animal crackers, and pumpkin bread.

I would love to win these!! I’m such a sucker for chocolate and sweets in general. I love so many of your recipes; but if I had to pick one maybe your “healthified” biscuits and sausage gravy. I love comfort food. And to have those types of recipes makes eating healthy so much easier for me and my family. Thank you!!
Mmmmmm chocolate…love to win some! It would go well with your yummy pizza with lots of veggies…don’t ya think? 😉
I really wana thank you for providing such informative and qualitative material so often.

I’d love to win. The “healthified” recipe that we make the most is a raw vegan grain free pumpkin “cheese” cake.
I want to win! =o) My favorite recipe is your chocolate chip cookies!!
I have purchased these bars before, oh my gosh, they are sooo good. I have not bought them in quite awhile, as I have a really hard time with portion control. If they are in my house, I can’t keep my hands (and mouth!) from them. I would love to win these, have not had them in a long time.
Hi Maria…I would love to win the chocolates….I have started to make the Healthified Carbonara and just love it with the Miracle Noodles, its so creamy! What a difference your blog is making to my life and a different way of eating for my family.
This looks amazing! I would love to win the chocolates to try it out in my home! Thank you for the inspiration!
Chocolates, yum. My 2 boys ask for the cinammon buns almost weekly, no wheat for 4 months and never going back.Fan from Canada. Christine from NL.
I would love to win! I am in love with your chocolate chip cookies!!!
I would make this chocolate raspberry cheesecake!
I would love to win these and make this treat for my husband’s birthday. I have all your books and make all of our meals on Sunday for the week. I will be making the cinnamon rolls for my family this Christmas!
for the cheesecake, is there an alternative to the nut flour? my husband LOVES cheesecake, but is allergic to tree nuts. Any ideas?
You could try coconut flour but it isn’t a 1to1 substitution. You typically use 1/4 the amount with coconut flour and then about twice the liquid (eggs, etc). Then adjust based of the thickness of the batter. Happy Baking! 🙂
I would love to win these! I think our favorite recipe is your cinnamon rolls, I make a batch every week.
I haven’t yet tried the ChocoPerfection so it would be great to win. Your pumpkin swirl cheesecake was delicious at Thanksgiving. Might have to give this a try for Christmas!
I would LOVE to win these yummy bars! My favorite recipe of yours isn’t the most decadent, but it’s our go-to recipe: Lemon poppy seed muffins! I’ll make a batch on the weekend and then we have a healthy breakfast to grab in the morning when things are hectic. I’ve even modified it to be a pumpkin muffin by omitting the lemon ingredients and adding pureed pumpkin, some coconut milk, and spices! THANKS MARIA!!!!
Love your pancakes made with Cottage Cheese-Jennifer Weinzirl
Hello, I would love to win ChocoPerfection bars. I tried your pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving and made your caramel recipe and drizzeled some of that on the top with some pecans. It was to die for!
Shannon H.
would love to win! 🙂 favorite healthified recipe is bread for (sub)
Hi Maria,
seasons greetings from the great white north! Yes, I also would love to win the ChocoPerfection bars, but the cost to send them to me would probably be more than the bars are worth… lol.
Also would like to just say that here in B.C. Canada it is against the LAW to sell unpasturised milk products!!! So we are stuck with commercial milk and milk products. Sad.
But Also would like to say that your blog is the BEST! Love the info. and the recipes, will buy your cook books as soon as my bank account recovers.
Regards, Sula
I love the classic recipe makeover of chocolate chip cookies. My grandchildren love them.
I just found this site and boy does that cheesecake look delicious. I’m starting a keto/paleo diet, and it’s heartening to see that there are some fantastic food that is low on carbs!
I’d love to win. The cheesecake, hands down!
So happy to have found your blog through your guest post on Against All Grain! As someone with an array of medical issues (epilepsy, EDS joint hypermobility type, adrenal fatigue, gluten intolerant), I am always looking for natural health/nutrition alternatives and healthy recipes (esp. low sugar and using almond/coconut flours). Thanks again for all the wonderful recipes and nutrition information! Winning these chocolate bars would be awesome as well!
Love your recipes, and would love to win the chocolate bars. And the cheesecake recipe looks great. Just one question: How many servings per cake?
Thanks, and best wishes for the holidays and for the New Year.
I cut it into 16 slices when serving. Obviously, for the photo, I made the slice a bit bigger. 🙂
love some chocoperfection! i would love to win those. our family uses the greek art recipe the absolute most and chicken yakisoba (sp??) . those are two recipe that everyone will eat. keep up your awesome work. when i get off track all your recipes inspire me to jump back on! thanks maria!

Kerry Joyce
I would absolutely love to win these chocolate bars! My favorite recipe of yours is the healthified french toast (the one with eggplant). It is delicious! Thanks
I would love to win these bars – not sure if your contest includes Canadians, eh 😉 I’m going to attempt to make this for our christmas holidays (without the chocolate perfection). I’m sure it will be fine, right? How bad can it be?
Loving the recipes!!
Janice
I’d love to try these bars! I love our healthified cinnamon buns, but this cheesecake recipe sounds amazing. I wonder how it would be with peanut butter instead of raspberry… Thanks for the giveaway!
Just like everyone else, I would love to win a box of the chocoperfection bars. We used them in lots of recipes, particularly your Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies and the Cookie Dough Dip.
When I think of my favorite healthified recipes, I feel that I should write about your Healthified Burrito, Eggplant French Fries, or that fabulous Moussaka. But I LOVE sweets, and you made those particularly enjoyable again – extreme chocolate birthday cake (my favorite), Mint Chocolate Cookies mentioned above, Pumpkin Bread, Apple Ice Cream. Yum!! Just perfect for my grain free, sugar free diet.
I would love to win these bars! I love making your “healthified” chocolate chip cookies!
Nina
I’d like to try these! Of your recipes, I have to say that I like your cheesecake the most. OMG is it awesome.

I would lobe to win the Choco perfection bars! I have yet to make one of your recipes, but I do have two of your books!

I would love to try the Choco Perfection bars. I think this cheesecake will be my favorite. Until now I enjoyed a variation on some healthified brownies.
I would love to win a box of Chocoperfection. I love your cheesecake!
I’d love to win and get a chance to try this chocolate! Thanks for sharing your talents with us so freely!
Me…Pick ME…PICK ME (hand held high waving in the air)..My favorite recipe is really the PUMPKIN Bread!! YUMMMY…I need to try some chocolate recipes though..Truth is, I actually discovered I love cooking and baking (you have brought baking back into my life) and it’s always fun to impress people with something that tastes great, is good for you, people love and more importantly they are shocked that I made. Keep up the good work and nummy recipes..
I would love, love, love to win anything chocolate! I am also dying to try your Italian Pillow Cookies. Everything you make is so wonderful. Italian Stuffed Meatloaf is a favorite of my family’s!
Anne M from Iowa
I would love to win these bars – – I did purchase some and have rationed them out – – square by square – – and have used them in some recipes… I am trying to accumulate a ‘store’ of ingredients that I don’t have on hand so that I can jump right into your recipes without an, “uh oh – – what can I use instead” moment, but it takes a while to get them through my budget… I am going to ‘gift’ myself a set of your cookbooks – – but I wanted to make sure that the Mayan calendar was not correct first!!! I did try a couple of the pumpkin recipes around Thanksgiving – – why don’t we think about eating pumpkin year round – – it is good stuff??? Have a wonderful and safe Holiday season….
I would love to win these chocolate bars! I’m just starting this journey and haven’t baked any sweets yet. Going to make the sub bread, cuz my weakness is for bread.
I’d love to win the bars. One of my favorite recipes is the Almond Joy bars from the Healthy Metabolism book.
I have been eyeing these bars ever since I discovered your blog and would LOVE to win a box to try them out! The kids and I made your Christmas cutout cookies, which we all loved! They were gobbled up within two days!
These bars are a staple in my kitchen…love them! It would be great, though, to win a box…so please pick me! I haven’t had a “bad” healthified recipe from Maria, You rock!
I need those bars. The holidays have been so hard and I know my insulin and everything is out of whack due to it! Those bars will help me combat some of the unhealthy ive been eating and get healthified again! I love the healthified protein pancakes and chocolate doughnuts. I cant wait to try a cheesecake or have the bars to make better frosting for the doughnuts! You are awesome Maria! Thank you!
Thanks for the chance to win! I recently have been having severe reactions to chocolate & I am a definitely a chocoholic :(. I have Nutricious & Delicious & there are too many recipes to pick one that is best! Thanks again! 🙂
Hi Maria,
I would love to win the chocolate bars. My husband and I are working hard to change our diet into one that is completely healthy and lasts for life. One of our favorite things to eat is chocolate. I make your “Easy Almond Joys” out of “The Art of Eating Healthy: grain free low carb reinvented sweets” cookbook. They are easy to make and are wonderful. We enjoy eating them very much. I even got one of my daughters to try them and now she eats them too! I have to double the recipe. I also make the biscuits and gravy. It is so good. We use the biscuits for small sandwiches as well. THANKS!!
I would love to win the chocoperfection bars! I’m new to eating “healthified” but I’ve loved all of the recipes I’ve tried so far. The chocolate donuts were a big hit!
Love these bars! I even used them in my pinwheel cookies so i didn’t use the dried dates! I have so many recipes of yours i want to try
Love these bars! I even used them in my pinwheel cookies so i didn’t use the dried dates! I have so many recipes of yours i want to try
I want to win these. We love the heathified lemon bars!!
I would love to win!! It’s so hard to pick my favorite recipe, because there are SOO many. Right how, I would have to say the Artichoke Spinach Tart from your new savor cookbook! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!
I would LOVE to win a box! I “HEALTHIFY” my morning eggs and popcorn, by cooking them in Extra Virgin Organic Coconut oil!
It’s KNOWN to be one of the healthiest oils for us, and the benefits of using it are simply astounding! Everyone should at least read about it and try it!
I would love to try these bars! Trying to get back into a healthy lifestyle. Lost 40 pounds and felt great about 5 years ago going low carb. One week visiting family over the holidays ruined that, and now I am back to where I started. I know I need to get back low-carb for my health and my husbands (who is diabetic). I just came across your blob and am excited at the possibilities. I have only just tried the graham crackers since they were one of my husbands favorite things. He gives them a thumbs up! Thanks for giving us tasty “heathified” options! I look forward to experimenting more with your great sounding recipes.
I would love to win these! Right now our family is trying out all sorts of new healthified recipes. Too hard to choose just one!
I would love these!
My favorite recipe is the “apple” crisp! mmm mmm
I’d love to win! My favorite “Healified” recipe at the moment are the pumpkin protein pancakes. Trying the protein waffles tomorrow. Happy Holidays!
I would live to win the chocolate bars! We’ve been enjoying the pumpkin mini muffins. My kiddos don’t even realize they don’t have sugar!
I really want to try these bars. Have yet to find them in a store where I can try one before i get a whole box. I just made the protein cinnamon bread of yours Maria, and i am a huge fan of it!!!! ruth mermis
I’d love to win the ChocoPerfection bars. And another favorite healthified food I’m loving right now is your blue cheese mashed cauliflower. Serving for Christmas dinner. 🙂
Would love to win the ChocoPerfection bars! Being diabetic they are the only great tasting chocolate I’ve found so far. Enjoy your pumpkin pie, pumpkin cheesecake, blondies, sub bread, and calzones. Didn’t have good luck with the protein pecan cookies though.

Merry Christmas!!
I’d love to win! I’ve heard great things about these chocolates, but haven’t been able to try them yet. My favorite healthified recipe so far is your hot pockets! It took a few tries to get them right, but I looooooove them! They freeze well and make an awesome breakfast! I’m going to be making your apple bundt cake today!
I would love to win! Mmmmmmm . . . chocolate! Gayle K.
I have not tried these bars yet because they are a bit spendy, but I sure would love to win them!! I would have to say our favorite recipe is something simple, but the whole family likes them…chocolate chip cookies! Making them as I type with my new Kitchen Aid mixer from Santa…which I SUPER LOVE!! Merry Christmas!
Bridget
I have just found you and now finding out about this chocolate bat and it sounds delish, saw a couple of gals making your cheese it recipe on you tube and decided to check it all out, have now subbed your blog and signed on to your Facebook page.
Dont know if that qualifies me to join in the contest or not.
Hope it does 🙂
Maria
The Monkey Bread recipe by your hubby was sooooooooooo good. I got the book the art of Healthy Eating “Savory” and i cook from it also. We make your Healthifed christmas cookies everyone love them. I can’t wait to make the chocolate cheesecake. Merry christmas from Atlanta, is nice and warm here today.
I would love to win these bars! So far, the favorite healthfied recipe is your chocolate chip cookies! Thanks!
I’d love to win and make this recipe, it looks so decadent. It is so hard to pick a single fave ‘healthified’ recipe, tho I’ve said many times that we so much enjoy the zucchini alfredo, and I made the pumpkin swirl cheesecake again but without the crust this time and it was soooooo yummy, did NOT miss the crust at all.
Thanks for everything that you do!
Merry Christmas to your family.
I would love to win a box. I really want to make this recipe.
These bars sound so great, would love to try them! Your Healthified Christmas Cookies are wonderful….thanks for the giveaway!
Deanna M.
My favorite recipe(s) are all the wrap ideas for mexican food. This is my favorite cuisine and you’ve broadened my horizons with your wrap ideas… from jicama tacos to actual recipes for tortillas. You’ve saved me from my delicious but sometimes boring “taco” salads and made life a little more fun again 🙂 The only chocolate I usual eat I make at home. It is cocoa powder/coconut oil/stevia treats, so something new would be awesome! Thank you for this amazing blog!
Just found this site a few weeks ago and it has been a huge blessing! I have learned, been encouraged and loved protein waffles!!!
I’d like to win the ChocoPerfection bars! I’m eating gluten/dairy/corn free.
Winning the bars would be good. Just picked up two at a local store for $3.79 each. I use the healthified wraps a lot, easy to make and keep well.
I have never tried these bars and would LOVE too! Feliz Navidad Maria.

Terry S,
Oh my goodness this post is like a double whammy of AWESOME! It would be great to win those ChocoPerfection bars and use them in all kinds of recipes. And that Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake looks divine!! Regardless of whether I win or not this recipe will be tried! 🙂
I would love to win these candy bars. While I would love to just keep them for myself, I think I would likely end up sharing them with severl people who eat healthy but do not yet know the joys of Chocoperfection. Or if you ever decide to put those cheese curds pictured above for giveaway! It is impossible to find cheesecurds down here. Cheese is our weakness out of everything, one day i am sure it will be our downfall.
I would love to try these!
Yum, pick me, pick me!!! It would make up for NOT eating the Christmas cookies:)
I would LOVE to try these!
I’ve been dreaming of this recipe since it was posted last week! I’d love to win a box of these chocolates so I can give it a try. I’m starting to get my diabetic hubby on the low-carb bandwagon, and this would be the perfect way to please both our sweet teeth!

Hi!!! I’d love to win these bars! I’ve been looking for a ‘healthy’ chocolate without malitol…
As for what my family liked that is “healthified”…they love the boiled clementine I just made…instead of white sugar, I put coconut sugar (lower glycemic-index)…and it is gluten-free 🙂 (paleo-friendly)

Thank you for the chance to win the chocolate bars! I love so many of your recipes, but the one I’m using most often lately is the pancakes you posted a while back, made with cottage cheese, that you can whip up in the blender. They are so delicious and filling.
I would love to win to try these bars….chocolate and raspberry together …. YUMMMMM. and, the healthified chocolate raspberry cheesecake gets my vote for my favorite new recipe.
I would love to win….and chocolate and raspberry together are my favorite….that’s why I love the healthified chocolate raspberry cheesecake recipe!
I want to win! I have these in my amazon cart but can’t justify the purchase right now. It’s a sign :-). I loved your hubby’s pizza crust!

I would love very much to win these bars, I have yet to try them. And can’t wait to receive my books so I can get on the right track to health eating and lifestyle…Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
I love raspberries and chocolate together – these sound amazing!
I would love to try these bars! I’ve read about them, but they are a little pricey for something that I haven’t tried. My favorite “healthified” recipe so far is the biscuits and gravy (Texas gal here), but I am excited to see if Craig’s pizza will take that spot. We are making it for our New Year’s Eve celebration.
Thanks for all the great tips!
These bars look delicious, and so does the cheese cake. Together, I think it is a sure thing…
Would LOVE to win this chocolate!!! Favorite recipe must be the cinnamon rolls, my kids just love them!
Hoping to win these 🙂 would love to make the cheesecake!

I think I now own every “Maria-fied” ingredient out there, EXCEPT for these, and I really want to try them. I made the Boston cream cheesecake for Xmas, it was sooo delicious, but would love to try it with this chocolate!
I would love to try these bars as well. We love many of your recipes with the Seafood Chowder ruling in our house! Gonna make this cheesecake for church group next week!! Thanks so much for all the love and effort you put into this blog, it is helping me save my life. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to win these bars. I have been dying to try this cheesecake recipe.
I would love to try these bars and pass this onto my clients! We love shaved brussel sprouts with bacon. The brussel sprouts come shaved at Trader Joe’s and we buy sugar free nitrite free bacon. Chop bacon and saute and add sprouts right in the bacon grease. Saute until soft.
I’d love to win. We enjoy all things healthified bc we don’t use wheat or sugar.
I’d love to win. We enjoy healthy eating b we dot use wheat or sugar.

Would love to win these to be able to try them. I have been living a low carb life for the past 8 months now (with some cheats along the way). I jump on every opportunity to try something new that I can add. Thank you!
I would love to try the chocoperfection bars in your recipes! I recently tried your “healthified” cookie dough dip and it was amazing (but hard to stop at one serving).

I’ve never had these but would love to try them – as for favorite recipes, I can’t wait to try the pizza recipe, I have a feeling that will be a new favorite!
OMG chocolate I can EAT! I would LOVE to win these and have shared your page and contest with all my fans!

I’d love to win so I can use the chocolate in more awesome Maria recipes! My favorite so far is the zucchini chocolate muffins…I guess I am a little choco-obsessed!
I would love to win! Thank you for all the wonderful recipes and knowledge you provide. THe lemon cream shrimp is my favorite!
yum chocolate and raspberry!
I’d love to win these. I hate chocolate with Malitol, and these are a gazillion and three times better.
I would love to win so I can make this cheesecake! It looks so good! Love your pumpkin pancakes. Thanks for all you do!
I have lost 29 kg in 4 months and have another 26 kg to lose. I’m on a pretty restricted high protein, low carb, very low calorie diet. I’m looking forward to being able to expand my dietary landscape when I finish and a box of these chocolate bars would be a very sweet treat to look forward to indeed!
I forgot to list a recipe – this cheesecake looks luscious – and I could use the choc in it too!
Excited to try these. Thanks for all the wonderful recipes!

Our family loves your pumpkin mini muffins frown the Nutritious and Delicious cookbook. We make a bunch to freeze for a quick breakfast or snack.
I would love to win! My favorite recipe (at least this month)are your pumpkin pancakes with pecan butter. My husband and boys ask for them daily!
I would love to win these choco perfection bars. It’s so hard to choose just one favourite recipe. Today it’s a tie between the healthified tortillas and the healthified blizzard mmmm 🙂 Thank you.
I’m a newbie to your site so have only had the chance to make two recipes – Protein Waffles and Amazing Pizza Crust. Both far exceeded my expectations and has renewed my faith in the possibility of clean eating as a lifestyle!
I’d love to try the chocolate bars so i can try more recipes — like the Chocolate Chip Cookies !
We love your chocolate chip cookies and your pumpkin donuts. Thank you for all of the great recipes!!!!
I would love to win these bars! We love the lemon bars and the granola! Can’t wait to try the cheesecakes!
Hi Maria, I have a question on the recipe. In the directions for the filling you state: Then swirl in the raspberries or raspberry jelly (I also chopped another ChocoPerfection bar and swirled that in also). The ingredients do not have this listed. How much do you use?
I used one bar, chopped. Thanks! 🙂
I would love to win! My sis and I like reduced fat mac ‘n’ cheese (substitute some pureed cauliflower for some of the cheese)!
That looks awesome! Just saw this blog post linked in a facebook group I’m in. Looking forward to reading more of it and trying some of your recipes.
Thanks!
I’d love to win! Healthified blondies!
Hi Maria! How many raspberries or raspberry jam would you use for the filling? Can’t seem to find it in the ingredients. Thank you!
Not sure. It will add some liquid. Maybe a handfull in the filling.
ChocoPerfection bars gave my son something to look forward to in his lunch box! These are the best….thanks, Maria! Our new favorite healthified recipe is the Biscuits & Gravy…OMG!!
I would love to win these ChocoBars! We are just starting out on the low-carb lifestyle, and are looking for all the good replacements. I just got my order of Swerve yesterday which I found through your website! Looking forward to trying lots of recipes. So far the lasagne with the chicken breast slices is our favorite. Thanks!!
Would love to win the chocoperfection bars. I found these on a tip from you and we love them. One of our favorite healthified recipes of yours is Cinnamon Rolls!
I would love to win these yummy bars to make your cheesecake. Right now I am loving healthified pumpkin muffins for breakfast most mornings.
I would love to win these bars ! I’ve tried to convince my diabetic father that he “can” still eat sweets, if they are homemade, and made right.. And that they can even be healthy for him. This would be a great way to show him that over the holidays !!!
Would love to win these – favorite recipe – Chai Donuts!
My favorite recipe is for the Sub Bread. I made buns and they turned out awesome!
I would love to win the chocolate bars so I could make this yummy looking cheesecake exactly as you made it. Thanks Maria
Maria, I’ve just realized, after mixing everything up, that you don’t mention how much Raspberry Jam is called for in the filling….Yikes!
I just use raspberry extract for the raspberry flavor. 🙂
I’m going to make this, but don’t want the raspberry aspect of it. I’ll leave out the raspberry extract, but should I sub some vanilla or almond extract or will it taste like plain chocolate without any of the raspberry stuff in it? Just didn’t want to bake a big old cheesecake that doesn’t have enough flavor! Thanks Maria!
I would love to win the chocolate! My favorite healthy snack is the Keto cheesecake that my wife makes! It’s delicious!
I would love to win. I like your healthy Oreo recipe
I love these candy bars. The chocolate raspberry is my favorite flavor!
Please add me to the drawing for these wonderful looking chocoPefection bars! I would have to agree with many here who enjoy your cheesecake recipe’s! I also enjoy the almond butter cookie. I make a batch and keep in the freezer. Only trouble is I can’t stop at just one 🙂
My favorite recipe is the Healthified Spinach and Artichoke Tart http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/spinach-artichoke-tart/ The only problem is my willpower. I love the incredible blend of flavors mmmmm parmesan, garlic, spinach, artichoke and almond flour….. I keep going back for more. I’d love to try the chocolate. Maybe this cheesecake will be my new favorite
I just made the cinnamon rolls for christmas breakfast. Love them!
Would love to win these bars to try new recipes
This is my new favorite dessert – perfection!!!
Thanks!
Hi Maria! The images in this post don’t seem to be displaying? (Tried in Chrome and Safari). Absolutely love your blog 🙂
Sorry, fixed them. Thanks!
I just made this and it was delicious. Thanks! I have to say the only thing I didn’t like was my raspberry extract. (Bakto) It tasted fake and alcohol-y. Are extracts healthy? What about Propylene Glycol? When I make this again I was thinking of making my own raspberry sauce from real raspberries and adding that in. Or would that change the consistency?
Thanks! That is why I prefer the Frontier foods extracts. They use vegetable glycerine. 😉
If I. Won I’d make this chocolate raspberry cheesecake
Oh my…..this recipe sounds so decadent….. I would definitely use the candy bars to make this cheesecake! But, of course, I would have to save one to try on its own! 😉
I would love to win this.I tend to not buy chocolate because my willpower melts away if it is in the house
Would love to win fro my daughter. We’d make good old fashioned chocolate chip cookies!
I think I’d make this cheesecake, or no bake cookies!
Would be making your chocolate chip cookies, cheese cake and your ice cream…….would love to try these bars 🙂
Will a ten inch spring form pan work? I’m sure adjustments need to be made time wise
Yep.
