Ingredients

Scale

  1. For the Coconut Filling:

    • 2 cups shredded coconut (unsweetened or sweetened)
    • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
    • 1/4 cup coconut cream (or heavy cream)
    • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1/4 tsp salt

    For the Chocolate Coating:

    1. 12 oz dark or milk chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)

1 tbsp coconut oil or butter (for a glossy finish)

Instructions

  • Make the Coconut Filling:

    • In a bowl, mix the shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
    • If the mixture is too sticky, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to firm up.

  • Shape the Coconut Mixture:

    • Scoop out small portions and shape them into balls, bars, or ovals.
    • Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

  • Melt the Chocolate:

    • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate with the coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
    • Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler.

  • Dip in Chocolate:

    • Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each coconut piece in melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off.
    • Place them back on the parchment paper.

  • Set & Enjoy:

    • Chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

  • For extra richness, use dark chocolate with a higher cocoa percentage.
  • You can use milk chocolate if you prefer a sweeter coating.
  • Refrigerating the coconut mixture before shaping makes it easier to form uniform pieces.
