Plenty of people have tried to come up with a cleaner version of the classic Bounty Bar. Here’s my take for all the coconut lovers:

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups desiccated coconut

2 tablespoons coconut oil

1/2 teaspoon vanilla paste

1 tablespoon coconut flour

3 tablespoons cacao butter

2-3 tablespoons rice syrup according to taste

1/4 cup cacao powder

Blend the coconut, oil, vanilla and coconut flour in a high speed blender until it forms a sticky mixture. Roll into balls or bars and refrigerate for at least half an hour until cold.

Gently heat the cacao butter, rice syrup and cacao powder in a small saucepan until melted and smooth. Dip the coconut balls into the chocolate to coat, then return to the refrigerator to set.

Makes about 7-8 little balls or bars.
