Ingredients
  

For the Coconut Filling

  • 2 cups Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
  • 3 tbsp Coconut Oil, melted
  • 3 tbsp Powdered Erythritol
  • 2 tbsp Coconut Cream
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Pinch of Salt

For the Chocolate Coating

  • 6 oz Sugar-Free Dark Chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil
  • 24 Whole Raw Almonds

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine the shredded coconut, melted coconut oil, powdered erythritol, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until everything is evenly moistened and holds together when pressed.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the coconut mixture and shape it into an oval bar, roughly the size and shape of a fun-size candy bar. Press firmly so it holds its shape.
    Repeat to make 12 bars and place them on the parchment. Press 2 whole almonds into the top of each bar.
  • Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 20 minutes until the coconut bars are very firm.
  • Melt the sugar-free dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Let it cool for 2 minutes so it thickens slightly.
  • Using a fork, dip each frozen coconut bar into the melted chocolate, turning to coat completely. Lift it out, let the excess drip off, and place it back on the parchment. Work quickly so the bars stay cold.
  • Refrigerate the coated bars for at least 20 minutes until the chocolate is fully set and snaps cleanly. Store in the fridge in an airtight container.
