Chocolate-Coconut-Almond Squares

These are so yum!  I just have to brag about them!  Chocolate-Coconut-Almond-Squares!

 

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil an 8″x8″ baking pan.


    6 ounces plain yogurt                                                        Mix first group of ingredients all together.                            
    1/4 cup applesauce
    1 cup brown sugar         
    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
    2 teaspoons agave nectar(recipe called for molasses)
    1 egg slightly beatened

   1 1/4 cups flour                                                                 add dry to wet ingredients, mix well.
   3/4 teaspoon baking soda

  
   1.5 cups chocolate chips (called for butterscotch chips...didn't have any)
   1 cup almonds, chopped                                                   stir in this group!
   1 cup shredded coconut

Pour mixture into the 8″x8″ baking pan.
Bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the squares comes out clean.
Makes 16 squares.

So these did rise...so I am thinking you could throw these into a muffin tin.  They are very yummy but I did have a few people saying that there was too much chocolate in them!  Too much chocolate!!!  I love chocolate, so to me there is never to much  :)  But it got me thinking, these would taste even better with dried cherries!   or even craisins, or raisins, or what about a seed mix!

The next day...yes I had one for breakfast...They are more moist and so much yummier!  With a chewy texture!

Well I love these and will make again...but with more ingredients to replace some of the chocolate!
