Process until the mixture is smooth, about 2 mintues, scraping down the bowl halfway through.Add the agave, butter and vanilla. Process until all of the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute. Pour the batter into a prepared baking dish, and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 20 minutes, turning the dish halfway through the baking time. Turn down the temperature of the oven to 300?F and bake for another 5-8 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a little bit of soft batter clinging to it. It should not come out clean, if it does: it?s overcooked.Let the bars cool completely at room temperature in the baking dish on a wire rack. Then put them in the fridge for at least 3 hours. When they?re cold, cut them into 12 squares and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.Serving Size: Makes 12 squaresNumber of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user HSHIRSCH.
