Ingredients

• 8 sheets phyllo dough sheets
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup butter
• 0.25 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 0 cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded coconut, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, honey, and salt. Stir until well combined.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave. Set aside.

Step 4

Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean, flat surface. Cover the remaining sheets with a damp kitchen towel to prevent them from drying out.

Step 5

Lightly brush the phyllo sheet with melted butter using a pastry brush, then place another sheet of phyllo dough over it. Brush this layer with butter as well.

Step 6

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the phyllo stack into 3-4 strips lengthwise, approximately 3 inches wide.

Step 7

Place a heaping teaspoon of the chocolate coconut mixture at the bottom corner of each strip.

Step 8

Fold the phyllo strip up diagonally over the filling to form a triangle. Continue folding, maintaining the triangle shape, until you reach the end of the strip. Repeat with remaining phyllo strips and filling.

Step 9

Place the finished triangles on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray them with cooking spray or brush with any remaining melted butter.

Step 10

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the triangles are golden brown and crisp.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate for garnish.
