Total
: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut finely shredded
- 1/2 cup refined coconut oil melted
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
- 1/4 cup powdered low-carb sweetener adjust to taste
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving enough overhang to lift the bars out.
Warm the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat until liquid, then remove it from the heat.
Whisk the cocoa powder, powdered sweetener, vanilla, and salt into the melted oil until smooth.
Stir in the shredded coconut until every strand is coated and the mixture holds together when pressed.
Press the mixture firmly into the lined pan, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until completely firm, then lift out and cut into 12 bars.
