For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the mixture before pressing into the pan. To prevent the bars from becoming too hard in the freezer, wrap them individually in plastic wrap after cutting. These bars can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the chocolate drink mix, almond butter, old-fashioned oats, mashed ripe banana, and unsweetened shredded coconut. (5 minutes)
02
StepLine an 8-inch baking pan with foil, ensuring the foil extends slightly over the edges for easy removal. Lightly coat the foil with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)

StepOnce firm, remove the bars from the freezer and lift them out of the pan using the foil overhang. Cut into desired bar sizes. (5 minutes)
06
StepServe immediately frozen for a refreshing treat, or allow them to soften slightly in the refrigerator for a chewier texture. (5 minutes)
