Paleo coconut-chocolate bar

This is a delicious crave-curing, totally paleo dessert. When I found this, I was skeptical, but it totally does the trick, and it's delicious!



Ingredients:
2-3 tbs coconut oil
1 tbs coconut nectar, or honey
1/4 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup coconut flakes
1/2 nuts (I've used almonds, pecans, walnuts...they all taste good.)

Directions:
In a saucepan, add coconut oil, melt over medium heat. Add coconut nectar (or honey). Once melted, add cocoa powder, coconut flakes, and chopped nuts. Mix together, place into storage container, and freeze/refrigerate until cool.

Cook's notes:

  • I found the coconut nectar at Whole Foods. 
  • I store it in tin foil in tupperware in the freezer. It cools quickly, but you should keep it in the fridge or freezer, as coconut oil will warm to room temperature quickly. 
  • It tastes like dark chocolate with coconut and nuts. So good!
