Homemade Bounty Bars
This one is an easy recipe as it has just three ingredients.
The recipe says desiccated coconut but I used fresh grated coconut. I dry roasted it first and then lightly ground it before mixing in condensed milk.
Here goes the recipe...
Ingredients:
🌴 200g desiccated coconut
🌴 1 can condensed milk (397g)
🌴 200g milk or plain chocolate
Method:
🌴 Pour the condensed milk over the coconut and stir until evenly mixed.
🌴 Grab handfuls of the coconut mixture and shape into bars - you can make them as big or as small as you like. Arrange on a lined baking tray or piece of greaseproof paper and allow to set in the fridge. The coconut will not go too firm but it will hold it's shape.
🌴 Melt the chocolate, either on the hob or in the microwave, and allow to cool. Spoon the chocolate over the coconut bars and leave on a wire rack to harden. Place a plate under the wire rack to catch excess chocolate. Once a little set, put onto some greaseproof paper and place in the fridge to set.
Enjoy the flavours of coconut in chocolate when completely set. I garnished them with chopped cashews just to give a color. Any other dry fruit can also be used or it can be made without them too!
