These 5-Ingredient Chocolate Coconut Bars combine the rich flavors of dark chocolate, toasted coconut, and crunchy nuts into a simple, delicious treat that’s perfect for snacking or dessert. With minimal ingredients and easy preparation, these bars are a quick way to satisfy your sweet tooth with a homemade touch.

Ingredients

Bars

  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • ¼ cup chopped almonds
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed coconut milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the bars.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the shredded coconut, chopped pecans, chopped almonds, dark chocolate chips, and sweetened condensed coconut milk. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully combined into an even mixture.
  3. Transfer to Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly to create a uniform thickness for consistent baking.
  4. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown, indicating that the bars are cooked through and slightly toasted.
  5. Cool and Cut: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, lift the bars out using the parchment paper and cut into 9 equal portions.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve these delicious bars as a snack or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.

Notes

  • You can substitute the pecans and almonds with other nuts like walnuts or cashews based on preference or allergy needs.
  • For a dairy-free version, ensure the dark chocolate chips and sweetened condensed coconut milk are certified dairy-free.
  • To enhance the texture, you can lightly toast the nuts before mixing them in.
  • Bars should be stored in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent moisture absorption.
  • Optional: Add a pinch of sea salt on top before baking to enhance the chocolate flavor.
