Best Healthy Sweet Potato Bars With Oatmeal Whole Wheat Cookie Crust Recipes
HEALTHY SWEET POTATO BARS WITH OATMEAL WHOLE WHEAT COOKIE CRUST
You will not miss the sugar and fat I took out of this dessert bar. It would also work well with carrots or pumpkin. I like to cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave ahead of time for easy peeling later.

SWEET POTATO BARS
These bars have a gooey, cheese cake-like top layer and a buttery cookie bottom layer. I adapted the recipe from one that called for pumpkin. I made these for Thanksgiving and they were gone before the meal was even served. We enjoyed them warm from the oven, topped with a dollop of whipped cream, heaven! We'll be haveing these every year from now on.
