Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

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

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until fully combined.
  2. Scoop and shape into 12 bars or logs. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Freeze for 20–30 minutes, or until firm.
  4. Melt the chocolate using a microwave or double boiler.
  5. Dip each bar in the chocolate, coat fully, then place back on parchment paper.
  6. 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.
