Dark Chocolate Coconut Chews
A chewy coconut bar wrapped in dark chocolate: two ingredients doing exactly what they should, nothing extra.
What It Is
Coconut chews start with shredded coconut held together with brown rice syrup, pressed into a dense, chewy bar, then coated in dark chocolate made with real vanilla and cocoa butter. The result sits somewhere between a candy bar and a confection, with the coconut giving each bite real texture and a faint natural sweetness underneath the chocolate.
The dark chocolate here is not the aggressively bitter kind. It is smooth and just sweet enough to let the coconut come through. Non-GMO ingredients throughout.
What To Do
Eat them as they are, straight from the bag. They also work chopped roughly and scattered over vanilla ice cream, or broken into pieces and folded into a batch of brownies before baking.
Store in a cool spot or the refrigerator if your kitchen runs warm. Heat will soften the chocolate coating and the chews will stick together. At room temperature in a sealed bag, they keep well for several weeks.
