My hubby has a major sweet tooth, yes you do Shane! So we decided we are going to try out different healthy alternatives to get our sugar hit in.
So here is the Paradise Bar. Please note this isn't my picture, I cant cook remember so you can look at the professionals pic. Ha! Enjoy xx
Ingredients
200 g of coconut cream
6 tbsp of coconut oil
3 tbsp raw honey
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of sea salt
150g desiccated coconut
200g (85% cocoa solids) dark chocolate
Method:
Combine coconut cream, coconut oil, raw honey, vanilla extract, sea salt and desiccated coconut in bowl and mix.
Pour the dough into the prepared tin. Press the mixture down with the back of a spoon to make it level and set in the fridge for 15 minutes until hard.
Turn the tin of coconut mixture out onto a chopping board and slice into 6 horizontal slices by 4 vertical. Place them onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment and keep in the freezer while you prep the chocolate.
Melt the chocolate in a glass or metal bowl over a pan of warm water – make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl and do not allow the water to boil or simmer – you may have to keep removing from the heat. This should take about 30 minutes.
Dip the frozen coconut bars into the chocolate using two forks, letting the excess drop off, and carefully place back onto the cold baking tray, leaving space between each bar. If the chocolate mixture becomes too cold, you may need to put it back over the simmering water again.
When you’ve finished dipping all the bars, place the tray back in the fridge until set. Once set, seal in a glass or ceramic container in the fridge or freezer until required. If they are kept sealed in the fridge, they will keep for a month – or longer in the freezer.
