Homemade Mounds Bars

A dairy-free, naturally sweetened treat combining rich coconut and dark chocolate, perfect for storing in the freezer for an on-demand indulgence.
Prep Time 1 hour 20 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 15-ounce can coconut milk
  • 2 9-ounce bags of high-quality dark chocolate (dairy-free, if needed)
  • ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • ¼ cup raw honey or maple syrup for a vegan version
  • 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the coconut milk, unsweetened shredded coconut, coconut flour, and raw honey (or maple syrup).
  • Form the blended mixture into individual bar shapes and arrange them on two parchment-lined or nonstick mat-lined baking sheets.
  • Transfer the shaped bars to the freezer and chill for a minimum of one hour to firm up.
  • While the bars freeze, gently melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or by microwaving in short intervals, stirring frequently to avoid scorching.
  • Once the bars are solid, dip each one into the melted chocolate, then carefully scrape off any excess chocolate using a spoon or knife to ensure a light coating.
  • Set the coated bars aside to allow the chocolate to fully harden.
  • Store the completed Mounds bars in the refrigerator or freezer. Serve chilled, as the chocolate coating will soften if left at room temperature for too long.
