Vegan Coconut Chocolate Bars
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups desiccated coconut
- 3 Tbsp liquid sweetener (I recommend brown rice/maple syrup)
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla powder/extract
- 240gr vegan chocolate
Preparation
Place all the ingredients except chocolate into a bowl and mix thoroughly. The coconut mixture should stick together in a lump when you press it in your hands (if it's too dry, add some more coconut cream and oil).
Line a square baking tin with parchment paper and place the coconut mixture inside.
Use your hands to press down the mixture equally and place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Once firm, take the coconut block out of the tin and use a hot knife to cut the bounties into shape (you'll get around 14 pieces).
Place them back into the freezer while you melt the chocolate.
Cover every bar with chocolate and place back into the fridge or freezer to firm up.
Let sit for 5 minutes at room temperature before serving. Enjoy!
