Who could resist magically moist chocolate-almond filling surrounded by honey-rich dough? If you like honey, especially the more intense and flavorful dark kinds, these cookies from Calabria are a must-try. 

Virtually fat-free and with zero added sugar, these bars are a wonderfully unusual treat, not just because they’re extraordinarily tasty, but also because of the simple-to-make technique. You bake the dough and filling pie-style, then cut individual serving size bars.
