Chocolate coconut slice

So, this slice came about when I started making these bad boys, these mouth watering bounty bars, which just use a slight amount of honey/ rice malt syrup as a sweetener.

But I thought how yummy a coconut chocolate slice would be instead. So I proceeded to make the following.

3 c coconut
1/3 c coconut oil
1/3 c honey

Blend for a couple of minutes. Pop into a square tin lined with paper and pop into the fridge to set.

Then grab

1c dates ( soaked for a few hours/simmer on stove)
2T cacao/ cocoa
1/2 c almond meal
2T coconut oil

Blend the dates until a paste forms. Melt the coconut oil and add the rest of the ingredients and process until smooth. Add to the chilled base and smooth out, pop back into the fridge to set. Once its set in a pan pop

2T coconut oil
1T cacao/ cocoa
Dash of maple syrup/ honey etc

Melt together then pour over the chocolate mixture, pop back onto the fridge to set.

Enjoy !
