Gluten Free Sunflower Chocolate Squares Recipe

The best kinds of recipes are those that come together so easily that it helps inspire you to want to continue cooking up delicious meals and treats. This Gluten Free Sunflower Chocolate Squares recipe is one of those kinds of recipes.

What I like most about this recipe, aside from the fact that it’s no-bake which is great for summer, is that there is almost no measuring. It’s a whole jar of Sunbutter (nut-free sunflower seed spread), a whole block of cream cheese, a whole bag of powdered sugar, and a whole bag of chocolate chips. The only thing you measure is the salt and vanilla.

These treats are great when you’re going to have company over and want to throw together something sweet while dinner is cooking, or perhaps for a weekend dessert that you can make with the kids.
