Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Mix it up
In a bowl, combine the shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk. The mixture will be thick and sticky—that’s totally normal!
2. Shape the bars
Scoop out portions and mold them into small bars or logs using your hands. Lightly wet your fingers to prevent sticking, then place the bars on a parchment-lined tray.
3. Chill
Freeze for 20–30 minutes to firm them up, making them easier to coat in chocolate.
4. Melt the chocolate
While the bars chill, melt your chocolate. Use the microwave (30-second bursts, stirring in between) or a double boiler until smooth.
5. Dip and set
Once the bars are firm, dip each one into the melted chocolate, coating them completely. Let the excess drip off before placing them back on the tray. Set them at room temperature or refrigerate for faster results.
6. Store and enjoy!
Keep them in the fridge for up to a week or store them in the freezer for a month. That is, if you can resist finishing them all before then!
