Ingredients
Bars:
1pintSo Delicious Oatmilk Peanut Butter and Raspberry Frozen Dessert
⅓cupraspberry preserves(optional)
⅓cuppeanut butter(optional)
Chocolate coating:
½cupcoconut oil
¼cupcocoa powder
1tablespoonagave nectar or maple syrup

Instructions
Make bars:
Press So Delicious Frozen Dessert into a 7 by 5-inch baking dish. Spread raspberry preserves and peanut butter on top (if using). Cover and freeze overnight or until solid and completely frozen.
Remove dish from the freezer. Run a knife or spatula around the edges and tip the dish upside down to remove the frozen dessert. Use a spatula if needed to carefully separate it from the bottom of the dish. Press with a spatula to mold together any broken pieces if needed. Slice into 8 bars and transfer to a sheet pan. Freeze at least 1 hour and store in the freezer until you’re ready to add the chocolate coating.
Make chocolate coating:
Heat a small saucepan over low heat (use a double boiler if desired). Melt coconut oil and whisk with cocoa powder, agave nectar or maple syrup, and salt. Transfer to a bowl that is deeper and wider than the ice cream bars for dipping.
Remove sheet pan from freezer and use a fork to dip one of the bars into the bowl and coat it with chocolate. Return the bar to the sheet pan and repeat until each bar is coated with chocolate. Freeze at least 1 hour or until chocolate coating hardens and the bars are completely frozen.
Use a metal spatula to remove the bars from the sheet pan and store in the freezer until you’re ready to eat them.
Notes
Line glass baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil to make it easier to remove the ice cream if desired.This recipe makes the extra chocolate sauce. (Having plenty makes it easier to dip the bars fully.) Use leftover sauce on ice cream sundaes or fruit.
