COCONUT CACAO BARK

OMG, I love this recipe. My DH and I gobbled a few pieces of it as soon as I took it out of the freezer. It is so fast and easy anyone can make it. The taste is really delicious!!! You can use a variety of powdered sweeteners in this recipe, just make sure you taste it while its still in the saucepan. That way, you can adjust the sweetness to suit your tastes.

Time 25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup coconut oil (liquified)
3/4 cup raw cacao (or powdered carob or coco)
2 tablespoons vanilla extract (or whatever flavour you want)
1/2 cup artificial sweetener (I used Xylitol)
3/4 cup slivered almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt the coconut oil in a medium saucepan.
  • Carefully add the raw cacao, vanilla, sweetener and nuts. The oil might spit a bit when you add other ingredients to it. Note: If you want, grind the Xylitol in a coffee grinder until a fine powder.
  • Mix well to dissolve the sweetener and taste to make sure it is sweet enough.
  • Pour onto a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. My baking sheet was 8x 11 1/2" which made my bark about 1/4" thick. But you can use a smaller one if you like your bark thicker.
  • Put the pan into the freezer for about 30 minutes making sure the pan is straight so the bark will be even when it sets.
  • Check the bark before you take it out of the freezer to ensure its solid all the way through.
  • When set remove from the pan and break into pieces. Store in the fridge.
  • Bon Appetit!

Two ingredients, super-simple, pretty good stuff. From the Food Network show Mexican Made Easy. Like Hello Dollies without the nuts, chocolate chips, or graham cracker crust. I had a craving for coconut and this helped meet the craving head on!

Time 23m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

5 1/2 cups coconut
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Spray an 8x8 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Mix coconut and evaporated milk together in a bowl.
  • Pour into baking dish and then smooth out (make sure it is level so that it cooks evenly).
  • Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until browned.
  • Cool completely and then cut into bars.
  • This is how the recipe/show said to do it, mostly. Some people have found that a package of coconut does not yield 5 1/2 cups, but the recipe works with less coconut. I found that I cooked mine for 25 minutes, cooled it, then ended up putting it back in the oven for another 10 minutes. Next time I am going to put it in a 9x13 pan, since I like the toasted coconut best. Other people found that they could drop tablespoonfuls on cookie sheets and bake them for 15 minutes or so.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate and coconut milk for the best results.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the chocolate to see if it's tempered by dipping a spoon in it and letting it cool for a few minutes. If the chocolate hardens with a smooth, shiny finish, it's ready to use.
  • To make the bark even more decadent, you can add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even a sprinkle of sea salt.
  • If you're short on time, you can make the bark in a silicone mold instead of pouring it onto a baking sheet. This will give you individual pieces of bark that are easy to break apart.
  • The bark can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

Coconut cacao bark is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that's perfect for any occasion. It's also a great way to use up leftover chocolate and coconut milk. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious bark that your family and friends will love.
