Chocolate coconut butter bars ingredients and recipe notes
The ingredients for this are simple:
Coconut butter, vanilla bean powder, sweetener (raw honey, maple syrup, stevia, insert your favorite here), and melted chocolate chips. That’s it.
Before we get to the recipe I want to let you know I used store-bought coconut butter. I do make my own coconut butter on occasions, but sometimes the store-bought is just better to use (It’s not as gritty). That said, I’m sure homemade coconut butter will work just fine in this recipe. I also used Lily’s chocolate chips, which are sweetened with stevia. You can use normal chocolate chips or even my homemade chocolate chips in this recipe with success too! Now to the recipes…
How to make chocolate coconut butter bars
This is an easy and straightforward recipe – here’s what you need to do:
Step 1
To make coconut chocolate bars you’ll need to melt the coconut butter in a small sauce pan over low heat. Add vanilla and sweeten to taste with stevia, honey or maple syrup. I added about 3 tablespoons of honey to this batch. Pour the coconut mixture evenly into each square.
Step 2
Freeze the bottom layer of the coconut chocolate bars for 15-20 minutes or until the coconut cream is completely frozen.
Step 3
Next you’ll need to melt the chocolate chips…
Step 4
Top the cold coconut bars with a layer of chocolate.
Step 5
Return the tray back to the freezer for 5-10 minutes or until the coconut chocolate bars are set. Then pop them out of the molds and eat them up!
