Ingredients
(Servings: 1)
- 200 200 g dark chocolate
- 250 250 g desiccated coconut
- 4 4 Tbsp maple syrup
- 3 3 Tbsp coconut oil
- 6 6 Medjool dates, pitted
- Pinch of sea salt
Method
- Start by making the coconut layer: Melt down the coconut oil together with the maple syrup in a pan.
- Gently pour the liquid into a bowl along with the desiccated coconut and thoroughly mix until everything is combined.
- Place the coconut mix into a lined baking tin, distributing evenly and flatten so it is tightly compact. Place in the freezer for half an hour.
- Meanwhile, make the salted caramel layer by blending the pitted Medjool dates in a food processor on a high speed with around ¼ cup of warm water. Add the salt once the mixture is smooth and spread evenly on top of the coconut layer. Place back in the freezer for a further half an hour.
- Lastly, melt down the chocolate in a bowl placed over a pot of simmering water. Whilst this is happening, slice your bounty bars into squares using a sharp knife to ensure a smooth edge.
- Take a bar and dunk it gently into the chocolate, using a spoon to help cover the top. Once all your bars are covered, store in the fridge until ready to eat.
