  • 2 Tbsp Earth Balance or unsalted butter
  • 1 and 1/2 Tbsp vanilla extract

  1. For best results, make a day ahead of time. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper. Grease with baking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients together.
  3. Add all wet ingredients to a large pot or Dutch oven. Heat until melted and warm, stirring to combine.
  4. Pour dry mixture into pot and stir to coat thoroughly. Press into baking dish. Let cool in fridge or on counter for several hours. Then, for best results, cover with plastic wrap and let sit overnight for the flavors to blend. If refrigerating, bring up to room temperature before serving. Cut into squares and enjoy!
