Raw Vegan Sweet Chocolate Squares (Nut Free)

When this recipe happened I didn't really know what I was going for. I just knew that I wanted it to involve chocolate. I haven't had anything really chocolatey in a while and I thought it was time because obviously I am pro-chocolate. Any chance you get to eat some chocolate, you take that opportunity and enjoy it. You can even think of me smiling and being happy for your awesome moment of chocolate indulgence to make it that much more exciting. Anyways, That's how these sweet chocolate squares happened. Consisting of soft and sweet bottom layer and a thick chocolate layer topped with hemp seeds and goji berries. Can it really get any better than this my friends? No, no it can't.
