Homemade coconut bounty bars

Ingredients :

3 cups of fine coconut flakes

1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar

2/3 cup condensed coconut milk

1-2 cups of your preferred chocolate chips

Directions:

In a spacious bowl, combine the coconut flakes with the confectioners’ sugar. Pour in the condensed coconut milk and stir until a dense mixture is formed.

Dampen your palms slightly and mold the mixture into small 4-inch bars. Arrange them on a tray lined with parchment paper and place them in the freezer for about ten minutes.

In the meantime, melt your chocolate. Take each frozen coconut bar and submerge it fully into the melted chocolate using a pair of forks.

Set the chocolate-drenched bars back on the parchment-lined tray and let them rest in the fridge until the chocolate sets.

Storage Tips:

At Room Temperature: Store the bars in a tightly sealed container for up to two weeks.

In the Refrigerator: To prolong their freshness, you can refrigerate them.

Freezing: For longer storage, layer them in a parchment-lined container and freeze. They can last up to 6 months.
