- Add SunButter, honey, vanilla and sea salt. Stir well until everything is totally combined.
- Pour mixture into your parchment lined baking pan and press firmly using your hands so it’s evenly spread out.. Add more chocolate chips on top and press these in as well.
- Once bars are pressed down firmly, place pan in the fridge for 2 hours to allow the bars to set up.
- Once the bars feel solid/hard to the touch, remove from the pan, place on a cutting board and slice into 10 bars. Serve immediately or save for later.
