Candy Cookie Bars

Am trying to veganize my go to candies, cookies, bars, recipes. I tried on this following bars. Pretty good. I do have to mention that once I made these, only after the fact I learned that Jelly beans and M n Ms are not vegan. Oops! Rookie mistake. But these are good 🙂

1 c each sugar and coconut palm sugar
1 c coconut oil, melted
6 tbsp aquafaba
1 tbsp vanilla essence
A pinch or two of salt
2 c flour
2 c candies (I used assorted jelly beans, white chocolate chips and skittles – be aware that if you use too much of jelly beans/skittles, once melted jelly beans are cooled, they hardened too much, will affect the cookies, too hard to bite. So use more choc chips/mnms, compare to chewy candies. I got a bag of great value jellybeans from Walmart, it is soooo awesome. Differ color really differ in flavor, making the cookie bars so flavorful!), Chopped
Additional candies

Preheat oven 350 F

Mix sugar and melted coconut oil with whisk balloon, for about 8 mins

Whisk in aquafaba and essence, then salt and flour

Stir in chopped candies and pour into aluminum/parchment paper lined pan

Sprinkle with a little additional candies

Baked for 45 mins, take out and press some more additional candies and let it cool before slicing into bars
