Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the shredded coconut, softened coconut butter, honey, softened coconut oil, and vanilla. If the mixture isn’t holding together, add a tablespoon or two of water until it holds its shape well when pressed.
- Line a square (20cm or 8-inch) tin with parchment paper. Press the coconut mixture evenly into the lined tin as a base.
- Pop the tin in the freezer for at least 20 minutes, or refrigerate it for a couple of hours until firm, then cut into approximately ten bars.
Coating
- Gently melt the dark chocolate and remaining coconut oil over low heat or using a double boiler until smooth and glossy.
- Dip each frozen bar into the chocolate mixture, flipping to ensure an even coating. Allow excess chocolate to drip off and place the coated bars on parchment paper or a cooling rack.
Setting
- Let the chocolate harden at room temperature for a second dip, if desired, or top with coconut flakes, nuts, or sea salt. Store the bars in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
Notes
Chilling is crucial to enhance the texture. Keep bars in a sealed container to prevent absorbing odors in the fridge.
