Ingredients
- 150 grams Shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 200 grams Dark chocolate chips (nut-free)
- 50 grams Coconut oil
- 60 ml Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the shredded coconut, honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until well combined to create a sticky mixture.
Step 3
Transfer the coconut mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use your fingers or a spatula to evenly press the mixture into the bottom of the dish, ensuring an even layer.
Step 4
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the coconut begins to turn golden brown on the edges.
Step 5
While the base is baking, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together. You can do this by placing them in a heatproof bowl and microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each interval until smooth.
Step 6
When the base is finished baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Step 7
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the coconut base, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 8
Let the bars cool to room temperature, then place them in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set the chocolate.
Step 9
Once the chocolate has hardened, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the baking dish.
Step 10
Cut into 12 equal bars. Serve immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
