Ingredients

  • 3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 15 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips, wafers, or chopped

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until fully combined.
  • Scoop and shape into 12 bars or logs. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Freeze for 20–30 minutes, or until firm.
  • Melt the chocolate using a microwave or double boiler.
  • Dip each bar in the chocolate, coat fully, then place back on parchment paper.
  • Let chocolate set at room temp or chill in the fridge. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Add almonds on top of the coconut before dipping if you want an Almond Joy twist.
  • Like it darker? Go with a 70% cocoa bar for a more intense chocolate flavor.
  • Feeling fancy? Drizzle a little white chocolate over the tops once they’re set.
  • Gift idea: Wrap these in mini cupcake liners and box them up—they make a sweet homemade gift.
