Categories     Candy     Chocolate     Low/No Sugar     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup organic shredded coconut - where to buy shredded coconut
1/4 cups coconut oil - where to buy coconut oil
3-4 medjool dates, pitted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of sea salt
1-1 1/2 cups homemade chocolate chips (store-bought will suffice)

Steps:

  • Step 1: Using a small saucepan, gently heat coconut oil and shredded coconut on low heat. The shredded coconut will begin to "puff" up after a few minutes in the warm oil. Remove from heat and set aside. Step 2: In a food processor, process dates, vanilla and salt until creamy and smooth. Step 3: Mix coconut mixture with date mixture. Pour into a small, bread loaf size pan. Place in freezer for an hour or until set. Step 4: Gently heat dark chocolate in a small saucepan on low heat. You can also use a double broiler to melt the chocolate. While chocolate is melting, cut the coconut candy into "mound" size pieces. I cut mine into even squares, then cut them in half again. These taste great without the chocolate too! Step 5: Dip coconut candy into melted chocolate and then place them carefully on parchment paper. Refrigerate the candy until it is set, 30-45 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I think I'll try making them with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but these were surprisingly good. The dark chocolate really balanced out the sweetness of the coconut. I'll definitely be making these again.
