No-Bake Sugar-Free Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

1In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free peanut butter (1 cup) and sugar-free maple syrup (½ cup). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and well combined.

2Add the rolled oats (2 cups), chopped nuts (½ cup) (if using), and unsweetened shredded coconut (¼ cup) to the peanut butter mixture. Mix until everything is evenly coated.

3Line a baking dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture evenly into the dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

4In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips (2 cups) in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.

5Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter mixture in the baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

6Refrigerate the bars for 1-2 hours or until set. Once set, cut into bars and serve at room temperature.

7Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
