My Vegan Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars were decadent and creamy. Some key ingredients included coconut milk, coconut butter, sugar free maple syrup, and peanut butter, to name a few. They had a delicious, crunchy peanut butter base and a rich and creamy cheesecake topping. I drizzled some nondairy chocolate on the bars to top them off.
Mom’s Organic is one of a handful of markets where I can purchase my recipe ingredients. The others include Whole Foods Market, Wegmans and Sprouts Farmers Market. Great ingredients are important when baking great desserts! If you’d like to see some awesome kitchen essentials check out the ones on my Shop Page.
