Chocolate Covered Coconut Bars

You can prepare these yummy chocolate covered coconut bars in no time and they taste a lot like the well known Bounty bars. At the same time, if you want a healthy desert and don’t consume dairy, eggs or nuts, you can enjoy them as well.

They’re absolutely delicious, filled with healthy ingredients and they don’t contain refined sugar. My daughter loves them and calls them her “little coconut cakes.” ?

then form 5 bars on a silicon baking mat (use your fingers to gently press them to the mat, so they will keep their shape). Place the bars in a freezer for 20-30 minutes or until they harden.

Chocolate coating: Place coconut oil or cocoa butter in a double boiler (medium heat) and wait until it melts. Add cacao powder and sweeten it with maple syrup. Take the bars out of the freezer and gently dip them in the liquid chocolate. Use a spoon to turn it around so each is equally covered on all sides.
