Follow @kalejunkie for more! COPYCAT STARBUCKS  BLISS BARS, but a little healthier :) I love the Starbucks Bliss Bars, but honestly I don’t love how I feel after I eat one—SUGAR CRASH AF. So I made a better-for-you version that literally tastes exactly the same. And just like all KJ recipes, these are easy to make and will impress everyone you know. Keep them stored in a covered container to enjoy all week or keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Recipes makes 8 bars
1 1/4 cups almond flour (or oat flour)
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup creamy cashew butter
1 egg (or flax egg for a vegan option)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 orange, zested
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
2/3 cup dried unsweetened cranberries, divided

Cream cheese frosting
1 8oz container cream cheese 
3/4 cup powdered sugar

Melted white chocolate drizzle

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, maple syrup, vanilla, baking soda, cashew butter and orange zest. The batter will be thick but that’s ok! Add the chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of the cranberries. Mix together well. Transfer the batter into a parchment-lined 8x8 baking dish. Gently press the dough down flat and evenly. Bake for 20 minutes until golden. Allow to cool. To make the frosting, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Spread on top of the cooled bars, add remaining cranberries and top with a drizzle of melted white chocolate (optional).
