Treasure Chest Cookie Bars Paleo & Low CarbPin

 Treasure Chest Cookie Bars Paleo are gluten-free, grain-free, and have a low carb version. Yummy cookie bars that are loaded with a treasure chest of goodies inside them.

Chocolate chips, walnuts, shredded coconut, orange zest, and dried cranberries are the tasty loot in these cookie bars.

These treats could definitely cause friends and family to loot the entire pan of them. Sorry about the pirate jokes, I can’t seem to help myself. But these treats are actually a make-over my mom’s much-loved treasure chest cookie recipe.
