  • Add everything but the mix-ins to the food processor and blend till smooth.
  • Remove the blade and stir in mix-ins (reserve ¼ cup for topping).
  • Spread batter into an oiled 8x8 baking dish and top with extra mix-ins.

Almond butter can be substituted for peanut butter, resulting in a more classic chocolate chip flavor.
