I have another delicious nut-free date bar recipe for you today!  I love homemade Lara bars but the kids could not take them to school because of nut allergy restrictions.  So I created these Chocolate Coconut Date bars as an alternative and they are by far a favorite snack with our boys!

I usually cut these into smaller squares for lunches.  They are super chocolatey and sweet, a perfect fix for a chocolate bar craving!  Store in the refrigerator so that they stay firm and fresh.

Enjoy!
